Jazzed Bermuda

#51fdb0
Notes

Jazzed Bermuda (#51FDB0) is a true teal with a neon character. It sits at the high-saturation edge of its family. Use it sparingly, as signage, accent, or highlight against darker surfaces. Its HSL profile (153°, 98%, 65%) places it in the highly saturated band at a mid 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 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.

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.
