Untroubled Solarium

#afc67e
Notes

Untroubled Solarium (#AFC67E) is a true lime 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 (79°, 39%, 64%) 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 indigo. For something softer, pull in its analogous neighbors on either side of the wheel.

Etymology

Untroubled
adjective

Latin turbāre, to disturb — negative-prefix un- plus past-participle of trouble. As a color modifier, untroubled implies a clear-and-calm-and-undisturbed quality where the hue carries no visual agitation. Sits at the crisp-and-calm end of the grid, parallel to serene and placid in usage.

Solarium
noun

A glass-roofed sunroom — particularly the Victorian and Edwardian solarium of British country houses, designed to capture warm sunlight on cool days. Solarium as a color refers to the warm yellow of sun-bleached interior wood and faded yellow-painted plaster: a soft, slightly muted warm yellow with the matte finish of UV-aged surface.

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.
