Jazzed Bermuda

#46c66b
Notes

Jazzed Bermuda (#46C66B) 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 (137°, 53%, 53%) 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 magenta. For something softer, pull in its analogous neighbors on either side of the wheel.

Etymology

Jazzed
adjective

American slang jazz, liveliness — past-participle of jazz. As a color modifier, jazzed implies a saturated-and-excited-and-active quality, the bright color of American-Jazz-Age poster-and-album-cover saturated-and-rhythmic graphic-design. Sits at the bright-and-active end of the grid, parallel to caffeinated and wired in usage.

Bermuda
noun

The North Atlantic British Overseas Territory — and the saturated blue-green of Bermuda's coral-reef lagoons. Bermuda color refers to Horseshoe Bay water at low tide: a saturated, slightly cool deep blue-green with the optical clarity of warm Atlantic water filtered through pink-coral sand.
