Trim Naples

#72401f
Notes

Trim Naples (#72401F) is a deep orange with a warm character. It leans warm, pulling light toward red, orange, and yellow. Naturally inviting, it suits editorial and hospitality contexts. Its HSL profile (24°, 57%, 28%) places it in the balanced band at a dark lightness. It works well as a headline, icon, or deep background in an otherwise light layout, pairing cleanly with cream, bone, and warm neutrals. For a confident two-color system, pair it with its complementary azure. 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.

Naples
noun

Naples yellow (lead-tin yellow) — a lead-tin oxide pigment used in European oil painting from the medieval period through the nineteenth century. The color refers to Naples-yellow pigment in a Vermeer painting: a saturated, slightly red yellow-orange with the matte finish of lead-and-tin-based pigment. Cooler than turmeric.
