Bountiful Macaw

#409126
Notes

Bountiful Macaw (#409126) is a true green with a cool character. It leans cool, sitting on the blue, green, and violet side of the wheel. Quiet and dependable, a fit for product UI and data visualization. Its HSL profile (105°, 58%, 36%) 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 violet. For something softer, pull in its analogous neighbors on either side of the wheel.

Etymology

Bountiful
adjective

Old French bonté, goodness — adjectival suffix -ful. As a color modifier, bountiful implies a saturated-and-generous-and-abundant quality where the hue offers visual richness without measure. Sits at the bold-and-saturated end of the grid, parallel to abundant and plentiful in usage.

Macaw
noun

The genus Ara — large neotropical parrots — particularly A. militaris (military macaw) whose plumage is dominated by saturated green. The color refers to a military macaw's wing covers: a saturated, slightly cool deep green with the matte finish of structural-and-pigment feather color. Cooler than parakeet.
