Triumphant Edamame

#338702
Notes

Triumphant Edamame (#338702) 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%, 27%) 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

Triumphant
adjective

Latin triumphāns, celebrating victory — present-participle of triumphāre. As a color modifier, triumphant implies a saturated-and-celebratory-and-victorious quality, the deep-rich color of Roman-Imperial-period triumphal-arch spolia relief and Arch-of-Titus victory imagery. Sits at the bold-and-celebratory end of the grid, parallel to victorious and conquering.

Edamame
noun

The Japanese name for fresh young soybeans (Glycine max) — boiled in salted water and served as a popular Japanese pub appetizer. The color refers to fresh-boiled edamame pods: a saturated, slightly cool yellow-green with the satin finish of cooked legume pod.
