Organized Marina

#095a69
Notes

Organized Marina (#095A69) is a deep cyan 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 (189°, 84%, 22%) 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 red. For something softer, pull in its analogous neighbors on either side of the wheel.

Etymology

Organized
adjective

Greek órganon, instrument / tool — past-participle of organize. As a color modifier, organized implies a clear-and-coordinated-and-systematic quality where the hue carries the visual register of well-coordinated-and-classified arrangement. Sits at the crisp-and-orderly end of the grid, parallel to orderly and methodical in usage.

Marina
noun

A small harbor for pleasure boats — the protected water of a yacht basin, a coastal moorage, a riverside dock. The color refers to the calm water of a Mediterranean marina at dusk: a deep, slightly green-shifted blue with the optical depth of sheltered water. Darker than mediterranean, cooler than peacock, with the maritime-leisure association of a word borrowed from Italian into every Romance language.
