Abundant Loganberry

#ab2a8d
Notes

Abundant Loganberry (#AB2A8D) is a true magenta 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 (314°, 61%, 42%) 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 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.

Loganberry
noun

Rubus × loganobaccus — a chance hybrid between Rubus ursinus (Pacific blackberry) and Rubus idaeus (raspberry) discovered in 1881 by Judge James Harvey Logan of Santa Cruz, California. Loganberry color refers to a freshly picked Rubus × loganobaccus aggregate-drupe-cluster: a saturated, slightly cool deep magenta with the matte finish of anthocyanin-rich aggregate drupelets. Slightly cooler than raspberry.
