Lucid Fiji
Lucid Fiji (#016024) 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 (142°, 98%, 19%) 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 magenta. For something softer, pull in its analogous neighbors on either side of the wheel.
Etymology
Latin lūcidus, clear / bright — derived from lūx (light). As a color modifier, lucid implies a clear-and-readable quality where the hue is unambiguous and free of optical clutter. Sits at the crisp-and-clear end of the grid, parallel to pellucid and plain in usage.
The Melanesian archipelago — and the saturated turquoise of Fijian lagoons surrounding the Yasawa and Mamanuca island groups. Fiji refers to a Fijian lagoon at high tide: a saturated, slightly cool deep blue-green with the optical clarity of warm South Pacific water.
