Bountiful Akamurasaki

#96106f
Notes

Bountiful Akamurasaki (#96106F) is a deep magenta 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 (317°, 81%, 33%) 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 green. 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.

Akamurasaki
noun

Japanese 赤紫, red-purple — the modern Japanese color name for the warm magenta-purple band that sits between aka (red) and murasaki (purple). Akamurasaki color refers to a Showa-period silk furisode obi: a saturated, slightly cool deep magenta with the silk luster of multi-bath beni-and-shikon overdye on patterned silk crepe. Slightly cooler than akane-iro.
