Bountiful Tokiwa

#0a6716
Notes

Bountiful Tokiwa (#0A6716) 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 (128°, 82%, 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 violet. For something softer, pull in its analogous neighbors on either side of the wheel.

Etymology

Bountiful
adjective

Old French bonté, goodness — adjectival suffix -ful. As a color modifier, bountiful implies a saturated-and-generous-and-abundant quality where the hue offers visual richness without measure. Sits at the bold-and-saturated end of the grid, parallel to abundant and plentiful in usage.

Tokiwa
noun

Japanese for evergreen — literally eternal rock — used for the deep green of Pinus and Cryptomeria foliage that persists through winter. Tokiwa-iro signals stability and longevity in Japanese symbolic-color vocabulary. The color refers to a Japanese cedar in midwinter: a deep, slightly cool dark green with the matte finish of resin-coated needle foliage.
