Plentiful Conclave

#661f93
Notes

Plentiful Conclave (#661F93) is a true indigo 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 (277°, 65%, 35%) 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 lime. 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.

Conclave
noun

Latin cum clave, with key — the locked-room cardinal-selection ceremony of the Sistine Chapel (since 1492), where cardinals wear deep-violet choir cassocks during the daily voting sessions. Conclave color refers to a contemporary cardinal's conclave choir-cassock: a saturated, slightly cool deep violet with the matte finish of vat-dyed ecclesiastical wool. Distinct from the cardinal's day-to-day red cassock.

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.
