Assured Vihreä

#62940a
Notes

Assured Vihreä (#62940A) 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 (82°, 87%, 31%) places it in the highly saturated band at a dark 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 indigo. For something softer, pull in its analogous neighbors on either side of the wheel.

Etymology

Assured
adjective

Old French aseürer, to give assurance — past-participle of assure. As a color modifier, assured implies a saturated-and-confident quality where the hue carries unwavering certainty about its own visual identity. Sits at the bold-and-confident end of the grid, parallel to certain and poised.

Vihreä
noun

The Finnish word for green — used for the saturated green of Finnish summer forests and the green-and-blue of the Finnish suomenlippu national flag's lake-and-forest symbolism. The color refers to a Finnish boreal forest understory: a saturated, slightly cool deep yellow-green with the matte finish of moss-and-undergrowth.

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.
