Bountiful Indochina

#76890e
Notes

Bountiful Indochina (#76890E) is a deep yellow 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 (69°, 81%, 30%) 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 blue. For something softer, pull in its analogous neighbors on either side of the wheel.

Etymology

Bountiful
adjective

Old French bonté, goodness — adjectival suffix -ful. As a color modifier, bountiful implies a saturated-and-generous-and-abundant quality where the hue offers visual richness without measure. Sits at the bold-and-saturated end of the grid, parallel to abundant and plentiful in usage.

Indochina
noun

The historical name for mainland Southeast Asia — Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia. Indochina as a color refers to the warm yellow of Cambodian and Vietnamese rice paddies in late autumn: a saturated, slightly red-shifted gold-yellow with the matte finish of ripening grain across an entire landscape.
