Established Greenroom

#1a7602
Notes

Established Greenroom (#1A7602) 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 (108°, 97%, 24%) 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.

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.
