Manorial Cōng

#2d7702
Notes

Manorial Cōng (#2D7702) is a deep lime 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 (98°, 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 indigo. For something softer, pull in its analogous neighbors on either side of the wheel.

Etymology

Manorial
adjective

Latin manōrium, dwelling — adjectival suffix -al, derived from manēre (to remain). As a color modifier, manorial implies a saturated-and-aristocratic-and-rural quality, the deep-rich color of pre-modern English manor-house livery-and-tapestry tradition. Sits at the bold-and-aristocratic end of the grid, parallel to lordly and patrician.

Cōng
noun

The Chinese word for scallion — and the bright yellow-green of fresh-cut scallion stalks. Cōnglǜ refers to the saturated lime-green of Chinese cooking and traditional textile color. The color refers to a fresh-sliced scallion: a saturated, slightly yellow-shifted green with the satin finish of cut allium tissue.

Moderately saturated colors gain a small bump in P3 — the difference is usually visible side-by-side on wide-gamut hardware but won't change the character of the color.
