Easy Phuket

#7ab58e
Notes

Easy Phuket (#7AB58E) is a true green with a cool character. It leans cool, sitting on the blue, green, and violet side of the wheel. Quiet and dependable, a fit for product UI and data visualization. Its HSL profile (140°, 29%, 59%) 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 magenta. For something softer, pull in its analogous neighbors on either side of the wheel.

Etymology

Easy
adjective

Old French aisié, comfortable, at rest — used as a color modifier since the eighteenth century for hues that read as visually undemanding. Easy beige, easy gray: moderate saturation combined with optical restfulness. Sits at the crisp-bucket center alongside calm and settled.

Phuket
noun

The Thai island in the Andaman Sea — and the saturated turquoise of Phuket's western beach water at Patong and Karon. Phuket refers to the beach water at midday: a saturated, slightly cool deep blue-green with the optical clarity of warm tropical-Asian water.
