Replete Zelyonyy

#2e7710
Notes

Replete Zelyonyy (#2E7710) 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 (103°, 76%, 26%) 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

Replete
adjective

Latin replētus, filled — past-participle of replēre. As a color modifier, replete implies a saturated-and-fully-pigmented quality where the hue is completely loaded with its source pigment. Sits at the bold-and-saturated end of the grid, parallel to brimming and suffused in usage.

Zelyonyy
noun

The Russian word for green — used in classical Russian literature for the zelyonyye lawns of Moscow's pre-revolutionary gardens and the green velvet of Russian Orthodox vestments. The color refers to a zelyonyy-painted Russian carriage interior: a saturated, slightly cool green with the matte finish of weathered paint.
