Level Nepal

#667e46
Notes

Level Nepal (#667E46) 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 (86°, 29%, 38%) places it in the muted 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

Level
adjective

Latin libella, small-balance / level-tool — sharing root with libra (balance). As a color modifier, level implies a clear-and-horizontal-true quality where the hue carries the visual register of gravity-perpendicular-and-perfectly-horizontal surface. Sits at the crisp-and-balanced end of the grid, parallel to plumb and flat in usage.

Nepal
noun

The Himalayan kingdom — and the terraced green of Nepalese rice and millet farms climbing the Annapurna foothills. Nepal color refers to a Pokhara terraced farm in monsoon season: a saturated, slightly yellow yellow-green with the matte finish of mid-altitude paddy.
