Ignited Nepal

#7daa10
Notes

Ignited Nepal (#7DAA10) is a true 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 (78°, 83%, 36%) places it in the highly saturated band at a mid 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

Ignited
adjective

Latin ignīre, to set on fire — past-participle of ignite. As a color modifier, ignited implies a saturated-and-just-started-burning quality, the bright color of match-strike-and-flint-spark initial-combustion emission. Sits at the bright-and-warm end of the grid, parallel to kindled and aflame in usage.

Nepal
noun

The Himalayan kingdom — and the terraced green of Nepalese rice and millet farms climbing the Annapurna foothills. Nepal color refers to a Pokhara terraced farm in monsoon season: a saturated, slightly yellow yellow-green with the matte finish of mid-altitude paddy.

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.
