Bountiful Cornwall

#31701a
Notes

Bountiful Cornwall (#31701A) 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 (104°, 62%, 27%) 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 violet. For something softer, pull in its analogous neighbors on either side of the wheel.

Etymology

Bountiful
adjective

Old French bonté, goodness — adjectival suffix -ful. As a color modifier, bountiful implies a saturated-and-generous-and-abundant quality where the hue offers visual richness without measure. Sits at the bold-and-saturated end of the grid, parallel to abundant and plentiful in usage.

Cornwall
noun

The southwestern English county — and the rolling green hills of Cornish moors and the Cornish Heritage Coast hedgerows. Cornwall color refers to a Cornish hillside in late spring: a saturated, slightly cool deep yellow-green with the matte finish of grazed pasture grass. Drier than verdant.
