Opulent Vihreä

#357d0c
Notes

Opulent Vihreä (#357D0C) 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°, 82%, 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

Opulent
adjective

Latin opulentus, rich / wealthy — derived from ops (wealth). As a color modifier, opulent implies a saturated-and-luxurious quality, the deep-rich color of Belle-Époque and Gilded-Age interior-decoration silk-and-velvet textiles. Sits at the bold-and-saturated end of the grid, parallel to lavish and sumptuous.

Vihreä
noun

The Finnish word for green — used for the saturated green of Finnish summer forests and the green-and-blue of the Finnish suomenlippu national flag's lake-and-forest symbolism. The color refers to a Finnish boreal forest understory: a saturated, slightly cool deep yellow-green with the matte finish of moss-and-undergrowth.

Moderately saturated colors gain a small bump in P3 — the difference is usually visible side-by-side on wide-gamut hardware but won't change the character of the color.
