Abundant Tulum

#9a0f7f
Notes

Abundant Tulum (#9A0F7F) 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 (312°, 82%, 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

Abundant
adjective

Latin abundāre, to overflow — present-participle of abound. As a color modifier, abundant implies a saturated-and-plentiful quality where the hue carries surplus visual richness beyond minimum requirement. Sits at the bold-and-saturated end of the grid, parallel to plentiful and bountiful.

Tulum
noun

Mayan archaeological site on the Mexican Caribbean coast — the Castillo and Templo del Dios Descendiente preserve the deep-magenta lime-mural pigments characteristic of Postclassic-period Yucatec Mayan monumental painting. Tulum color refers to a Tulum-period Mayan mural-fragment from the Templo de los Frescos: a saturated, slightly cool deep magenta with the matte finish of cochineal-and-cinnabar pigment on lime-plaster wall.

Display P3 representation

The CSS Color 4 wide-gamut form of this color. Both swatches render the same color on every display — the P3 form only diverges from sRGB when a designer pushes channels outside sRGB's reach.

This color is chromatic enough that authoring it as P3 native (instead of clamping to sRGB) gives a perceptibly more saturated render on wide-gamut displays — modern Macs, iPhones, iPads, and most recent OLED laptops.
