Plentiful Foulard

#ad367f
Notes

Plentiful Foulard (#AD367F) is a true magenta with an earthy character. It leans grounded and natural, the kind of color that plays well with wood, clay, linen, and warm neutrals. Its HSL profile (323°, 52%, 45%) 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

Plentiful
adjective

Old French plentif, abundant — adjectival suffix -ful, derived from Latin plēnitās (fullness). As a color modifier, plentiful implies a saturated-and-generous quality where the hue carries rich visual abundance without restraint. Sits at the bold-and-saturated end of the grid, parallel to abundant and bountiful.

Foulard
noun

French foulard — a small lightweight square silk neckerchief, particularly the saturated-magenta foulard of Belle Époque French men's fashion (1870–1914). Foulard color refers to a Lyon-woven Belle-Époque silk foulard in a Maison Hermès showroom: a saturated, slightly cool deep magenta with the silk luster of multi-bath synthetic aniline dye on jacquard-figured Lyon silk.

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.
