Bountiful Galicia

#48830c
Notes

Bountiful Galicia (#48830C) 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 (90°, 83%, 28%) 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.

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.

Galicia
noun

The wet northwestern Spanish region — and the saturated green of Galician hillsides, tetillas cheese pastures, and the bagpipe-playing Celtic traditions of Atlantic Iberia. Galicia refers to a Galician hillside in late winter: a saturated, slightly cool yellow-green with the matte finish of high-rainfall coastal pasture.

Moderately saturated colors gain a small bump in P3 — the difference is usually visible side-by-side on wide-gamut hardware but won't change the character of the color.
