Untroubled Tokiwa

#357325
Notes

Untroubled Tokiwa (#357325) is a deep green 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 (108°, 51%, 30%) 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

Untroubled
adjective

Latin turbāre, to disturb — negative-prefix un- plus past-participle of trouble. As a color modifier, untroubled implies a clear-and-calm-and-undisturbed quality where the hue carries no visual agitation. Sits at the crisp-and-calm end of the grid, parallel to serene and placid in usage.

Tokiwa
noun

Japanese for evergreen — literally eternal rock — used for the deep green of Pinus and Cryptomeria foliage that persists through winter. Tokiwa-iro signals stability and longevity in Japanese symbolic-color vocabulary. The color refers to a Japanese cedar in midwinter: a deep, slightly cool dark green with the matte finish of resin-coated needle foliage.
