Aglow Bermuda

#7ceaaf
Notes

Aglow Bermuda (#7CEAAF) is a true teal 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 (148°, 72%, 70%) places it in the balanced 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

Aglow
adjective

Old English on-glōwan, on-glow — sharing root with glow and gleam. As a color modifier, aglow implies a saturated-and-lit-from-within quality, the bright color of fireplace-and-jack-o-lantern interior-glow-lit warm-light emission against ambient darkness. Sits at the bright-and-warm end of the grid, parallel to glowing and aflame in usage.

Bermuda
noun

The North Atlantic British Overseas Territory — and the saturated blue-green of Bermuda's coral-reef lagoons. Bermuda color refers to Horseshoe Bay water at low tide: a saturated, slightly cool deep blue-green with the optical clarity of warm Atlantic water filtered through pink-coral sand.
