Replete Vine

#50901c
Notes

Replete Vine (#50901C) 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 (93°, 67%, 34%) places it in the balanced band at a dark lightness. It works well as a headline, icon, or deep background in an otherwise light layout, pairing cleanly with cream, bone, and warm neutrals. 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

Replete
adjective

Latin replētus, filled — past-participle of replēre. As a color modifier, replete implies a saturated-and-fully-pigmented quality where the hue is completely loaded with its source pigment. Sits at the bold-and-saturated end of the grid, parallel to brimming and suffused in usage.

Vine
noun

Generic for any climbing plant — particularly the grapevine Vitis vinifera whose leaves are central to Mediterranean wine viticulture and dolma cooking. Vine color refers to fresh grape-vine leaves in early summer: a saturated, slightly cool deep yellow-green with the matte finish of vine leaf surface.
