Even Foglia

#365d15
Notes

Even Foglia (#365D15) 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 (93°, 63%, 22%) 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 indigo. For something softer, pull in its analogous neighbors on either side of the wheel.

Etymology

Even
adjective

Old English efen, flat, equal — used as a color modifier since the medieval period for hues that read as uniformly distributed across a surface. Even gray, even tan: the implication is moderate saturation combined with optical uniformity. Sits at the crisp-bucket center alongside steady and balanced.

Foglia
noun

The Italian word for leaf — used in art vocabulary for foglia d'oro (gold leaf), foglia secca (dried leaf), and the verde foglia of fresh foliage. The color refers to a fresh basil leaf in an Italian kitchen: a saturated, slightly cool green with the satin finish of fresh herb leaf. The Italian cousin of frond.
