Green

Green (#008000) is a deep green with a jewel character. It carries the deep, saturated richness of a gemstone. Authoritative and slightly formal, it works well for type and heavy UI elements. Its HSL profile (120°, 100%, 25%) places it in the highly saturated band at a dark lightness. Best used in small doses, like logos, CTAs, focus rings, or highlight text, where its saturation becomes a feature rather than noise. For a confident two-color system, pair it with its complementary violet. For something softer, pull in its analogous neighbors on either side of the wheel. G=128, R=B=0 — the dark-green half-octant. CSS's 'Green' keyword resolves to this darker tone; the full-intensity G=255 version lives under the name 'Lime'.
