Plentiful Gin

#5f7ce8
Notes

Plentiful Gin (#5F7CE8) is a true blue with a vibrant character. It holds its own as a focal accent, carrying visual weight without tipping into neon territory. Its HSL profile (227°, 75%, 64%) 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 amber. For something softer, pull in its analogous neighbors on either side of the wheel.

Etymology

Plentiful
adjective

Old French plentif, abundant — adjectival suffix -ful, derived from Latin plēnitās (fullness). As a color modifier, plentiful implies a saturated-and-generous quality where the hue carries rich visual abundance without restraint. Sits at the bold-and-saturated end of the grid, parallel to abundant and bountiful.

Gin
noun

The juniper-flavored distilled spirit — and the saturated deep blue of Bombay Sapphire-bottle glass and Hendrick's-style apothecary-style packaging. Gin color refers to a fresh-poured gin bottle in a bar light: a saturated, slightly cool deep blue with the high gloss of dyed glass.

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.
