Untroubled Bloodstone

#577f3f
Notes

Untroubled Bloodstone (#577F3F) is a true lime 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 (98°, 34%, 37%) 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 indigo. For something softer, pull in its analogous neighbors on either side of the wheel.

Etymology

Untroubled
adjective

Latin turbāre, to disturb — negative-prefix un- plus past-participle of trouble. As a color modifier, untroubled implies a clear-and-calm-and-undisturbed quality where the hue carries no visual agitation. Sits at the crisp-and-calm end of the grid, parallel to serene and placid in usage.

Bloodstone
noun

A dark green chalcedony with red iron-oxide flecks — used in classical antiquity for engraved seals and Christian-era ornament (the red flecks symbolizing Christ's blood). Also called heliotrope. The color refers to a polished bloodstone cabochon: a saturated, slightly muted dark yellow-green with the optical complexity of red-flecked chalcedony.

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.
