Spotless Galicia

#6f864a
Notes

Spotless Galicia (#6F864A) 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 (83°, 29%, 41%) 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

Spotless
adjective

Old English spott (spot) plus suffix -less. As a color modifier, spotless implies a clear-and-unmarked quality where the hue carries no contaminating speck or stain. Sits at the crisp-and-clean end of the grid, parallel to pristine and unblemished in usage.

Galicia
noun

The wet northwestern Spanish region — and the saturated green of Galician hillsides, tetillas cheese pastures, and the bagpipe-playing Celtic traditions of Atlantic Iberia. Galicia refers to a Galician hillside in late winter: a saturated, slightly cool yellow-green with the matte finish of high-rainfall coastal pasture.

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.
