Etymology

Neat
adjective

Old French net, clean / pure — sharing root with Latin nitidus. As a color modifier, neat implies a clear-and-orderly quality where the hue carries the well-arranged visual register without clutter or excess. Sits at the crisp-and-orderly end of the grid, parallel to trim and tidy in usage.

Tyrol
noun

The Alpine region split between Austria and northern Italy — and the deep green of Tyrolean Alpine pasture and the grün lederhosen of traditional Austrian dress. Tyrol color refers to a Tyrolean Alpine meadow in July: a saturated, slightly cool deep yellow-green with the matte finish of high-altitude wildflower-and-grass.
