Replete Atitlán

#344494
Notes

Replete Atitlán (#344494) is a true blue with an earthy character. It leans grounded and natural, the kind of color that plays well with wood, clay, linen, and warm neutrals. Its HSL profile (230°, 48%, 39%) places it in the balanced band at a mid lightness. It works across type, buttons, and borders, saturated enough to feel deliberate but balanced enough to not fight the rest of the palette. For a confident two-color system, pair it with its complementary amber. 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.

Atitlán
noun

Mayan-named volcanic crater lake in Guatemala's western highlands, surrounded by Tolimán, San Pedro, and Atitlán volcanoes. The lake's depth and volcanic basement give it an unusual deep blue-violet at certain light angles. Atitlán color refers to Lake Atitlán surface at crepuscule in clear weather: a saturated, slightly cool deep blue-violet with the optical complexity of deep-water Rayleigh-scattered indigo light.
