Bountiful Atitlán

#41389f
Notes

Bountiful Atitlán (#41389F) is a true blue 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 (245°, 48%, 42%) 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 yellow. 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.

Atitlán
noun

Mayan-named volcanic crater lake in Guatemala's western highlands, surrounded by Tolimán, San Pedro, and Atitlán volcanoes. The lake's depth and volcanic basement give it an unusual deep blue-violet at certain light angles. Atitlán color refers to Lake Atitlán surface at crepuscule in clear weather: a saturated, slightly cool deep blue-violet with the optical complexity of deep-water Rayleigh-scattered indigo light.
