Pristine Bermuda

#66e3bb
Notes

Pristine Bermuda (#66E3BB) is a true teal with a vibrant character. It holds its own as a focal accent, carrying visual weight without tipping into neon territory. Its HSL profile (161°, 69%, 65%) 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 red. For something softer, pull in its analogous neighbors on either side of the wheel.

Etymology

Pristine
adjective

Latin prīstinus, original / former. As a color modifier, pristine implies a clear-and-untouched quality where the hue carries the original-condition visual register without wear or fade. Sits at the crisp-and-clean end of the grid, parallel to unblemished and spotless in usage.

Bermuda
noun

The North Atlantic British Overseas Territory — and the saturated blue-green of Bermuda's coral-reef lagoons. Bermuda color refers to Horseshoe Bay water at low tide: a saturated, slightly cool deep blue-green with the optical clarity of warm Atlantic water filtered through pink-coral sand.
