sRGB: The Standard Color Space
Standard Red Green Blue (sRGB) is a color space created by HP and Microsoft. It is the default color profile for the web, most monitors, and consumer printers.
sRGB is designed to be a “safe” color space. While it contains fewer colors than profiles like “Adobe RGB,” it ensures that your design looks as consistent as possible across different screens. For example, if you design a website in a larger color space, the colors might look vibrant on your high-end monitor but “broken” or dull on a customer’s standard laptop.
