Deathly Bermuda

#0f2715
Notes

Deathly Bermuda (#0F2715) is a deep green with an earthy character. It leans grounded and natural, the kind of color that plays well with wood, clay, linen, and warm neutrals. Its HSL profile (135°, 44%, 11%) places it in the balanced band at a dark lightness. It works well as a headline, icon, or deep background in an otherwise light layout, pairing cleanly with cream, bone, and warm neutrals. 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

Deathly
adjective

Old English dēath, death — adjectival suffix -ly. As a color modifier, deathly implies a deep-cool-and-pallid quality, the cold-shifted darkness associated with mortality and absence of vital warmth. Sits at the deep-and-cool end of the grid, parallel to funereal but with pallor undertone.

Bermuda
noun

The North Atlantic British Overseas Territory — and the saturated blue-green of Bermuda's coral-reef lagoons. Bermuda color refers to Horseshoe Bay water at low tide: a saturated, slightly cool deep blue-green with the optical clarity of warm Atlantic water filtered through pink-coral sand.
