Solid Greenroom

#0b6720
Notes

Solid Greenroom (#0B6720) 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 (134°, 81%, 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 magenta. For something softer, pull in its analogous neighbors on either side of the wheel.

Etymology

Solid
adjective

Latin solidus, firm, dense — used as a color modifier since the seventeenth century for hues that read as continuous and unbroken: a solid blue is one with no variation across the surface. Implies high saturation combined with optical density. Sits in the bold-bucket alongside strong and robust, slightly more focused on uniformity.

Greenroom
noun

A theatrical waiting room for performers off-stage — traditionally painted green to rest the eyes after stage lighting. Greenroom color refers to the saturated green-painted plaster walls of a London West End greenroom: a saturated, slightly muted deep green with the matte finish of distemper paint.
