Resilient Loganberry

#b02f87
Notes

Resilient Loganberry (#B02F87) 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 (319°, 58%, 44%) 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

Resilient
adjective

Latin resiliēns, springing-back — present-participle of resilīre. As a color modifier, resilient implies a saturated-and-recovering-and-flexible quality where the hue maintains its strength under visual pressure. Sits at the bold-and-resilient end of the grid, parallel to tough and hardy in usage.

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.
