Trim Udaipur

#6a5695
Notes

Trim Udaipur (#6A5695) is a true indigo 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 (259°, 27%, 46%) 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 lime. For something softer, pull in its analogous neighbors on either side of the wheel.

Etymology

Trim
adjective

Old English trymman, to make firm — sharing root with firm. As a color modifier, trim implies a clear-and-neatly-arranged quality where the hue carries the visual register of carefully-edited surface-detail. Sits at the crisp-and-neat end of the grid, parallel to neat and tidy in usage.

Udaipur
noun

The Rajput City of Lakes in Mewar, Rajasthan — home of the Mewar court whose miniature paintings used ultramarine (powdered Afghan lapis) and indigo for the deep skies and royal robes. Udaipur color refers to a Mewar-school 17th-century miniature's lapis-and-indigo sky field: a saturated, slightly cool deep blue-violet with the matte finish of mineral ultramarine on hand-prepared vasli paper.
