Replete Procida

#0776dd
Notes

Replete Procida (#0776DD) is a true azure with a neon character. It sits at the high-saturation edge of its family. Use it sparingly, as signage, accent, or highlight against darker surfaces. Its HSL profile (209°, 94%, 45%) places it in the highly saturated band at a mid 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 orange. For something softer, pull in its analogous neighbors on either side of the wheel.

Etymology

Replete
adjective

Latin replētus, filled — past-participle of replēre. As a color modifier, replete implies a saturated-and-fully-pigmented quality where the hue is completely loaded with its source pigment. Sits at the bold-and-saturated end of the grid, parallel to brimming and suffused in usage.

Procida
noun

The smallest of the Phlegraean Islands in the Bay of Naples — and the saturated blue of Procidan fishermen's house facades at Marina Corricella. Procida refers to a fisherman's house at Marina Corricella: a saturated, slightly cool deep blue with the matte finish of weathered Mediterranean limewash.

Moderately saturated colors gain a small bump in P3 — the difference is usually visible side-by-side on wide-gamut hardware but won't change the character of the color.
