Abundant Glas

#739c08
Notes

Abundant Glas (#739C08) is a deep lime with a jewel character. It carries the deep, saturated richness of a gemstone. Authoritative and slightly formal, it works well for type and heavy UI elements. Its HSL profile (77°, 90%, 32%) places it in the highly saturated band at a dark lightness. Best used in small doses, like logos, CTAs, focus rings, or highlight text, where its saturation becomes a feature rather than noise. 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

Abundant
adjective

Latin abundāre, to overflow — present-participle of abound. As a color modifier, abundant implies a saturated-and-plentiful quality where the hue carries surplus visual richness beyond minimum requirement. Sits at the bold-and-saturated end of the grid, parallel to plentiful and bountiful.

Glas
noun

The Welsh word for green — though historically Welsh glas spans the green-blue spectrum, including the gray of stormy seas and slate. Glas Cymru (Welsh-green) refers to the saturated green of Welsh hillsides in spring. The color refers to a Welsh hill in May: a saturated, slightly cool yellow-green with the matte finish of fresh grass.

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.
