The RGB color model, that generates all colors on computer and television screens, makes brown by combining red and green light at different intensities.

Such colors are less saturated than colors perceived to be orange. Browns are usually described as light or dark, reddish, yellowish, or gray-brown. There are no standardized names for shades of brown; the same shade may have different names on different color lists, and sometimes one name can refer to several very different colors. The X11 color list of web colors has seventeen different shades of brown, but the complete list of browns is much longer.

Black and dark gray colors are powerful accent colors that suggest weight, dignity, formality, and solemnity.
