Taupe

Taupe

Taupe is a dark gray color that goes to gray and brown with color. Pantone and RGB hexadecimal systems both describe the color as a warm dark gray. The term "taupe" is, however, blurred in the application. Different shades tending to gray-brown are marked with the addition "taupe" or simply called "taupe". Such tones are widespread in fashion, interior design, industrial design and graphics. But also designers and artists are often at odds, what can be called "taupe". There is no uniform, universally accepted definition. Taupe bezeichnet eine dunkle graue Farbe, die mit Farbstich ins Graue und Braune geht. Pantone- und RGB-Hexadezimal-System beschreiben beide die Farbe als ein warmes dunkles Grau. Der Begriff „taupe“ ist jedoch in der Anwendung unscharf. Verschiedene Farbtöne, die ins Grau-Braune tendieren, werden mit dem Zusatz „Taupe“ versehen oder einfach als „Taupe“ bezeichnet. Solche Töne sind in der Mode, im Innenausbau, im Industriedesign und der Grafik weit verbreitet. Doch auch Designer und Künstler sind sich häufig uneins, was als „taupe“ zu benennen ist. Eine einheitliche, allgemein anerkannte Definition gibt es nicht.
