Replete Nepal

#3b7e0e
Notes

Replete Nepal (#3B7E0E) 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 (96°, 80%, 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.

Nepal
noun

The Himalayan kingdom — and the terraced green of Nepalese rice and millet farms climbing the Annapurna foothills. Nepal color refers to a Pokhara terraced farm in monsoon season: a saturated, slightly yellow yellow-green with the matte finish of mid-altitude paddy.
