Triumphant Meadow

#039708
Notes

Triumphant Meadow (#039708) 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 (122°, 96%, 30%) 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.

Etymology

Triumphant
adjective

Latin triumphāns, celebrating victory — present-participle of triumphāre. As a color modifier, triumphant implies a saturated-and-celebratory-and-victorious quality, the deep-rich color of Roman-Imperial-period triumphal-arch spolia relief and Arch-of-Titus victory imagery. Sits at the bold-and-celebratory end of the grid, parallel to victorious and conquering.

Meadow
noun

A mid-height grassland — wildflower-mixed pasture too rich for tilled crops but too tame for prairie. The color refers to the average reflectance of an English meadow in June: a soft, slightly yellow-shifted green with the matte finish of grass blades and clover, scattered with the punctuation of buttercups and clover blossoms. Lighter than forest, warmer than fern, with the pastoral weight of a word from John Constable.
