Organized Edamame

#b7cc92
Notes

Organized Edamame (#B7CC92) 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 (82°, 36%, 69%) 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

Organized
adjective

Greek órganon, instrument / tool — past-participle of organize. As a color modifier, organized implies a clear-and-coordinated-and-systematic quality where the hue carries the visual register of well-coordinated-and-classified arrangement. Sits at the crisp-and-orderly end of the grid, parallel to orderly and methodical in usage.

Edamame
noun

The Japanese name for fresh young soybeans (Glycine max) — boiled in salted water and served as a popular Japanese pub appetizer. The color refers to fresh-boiled edamame pods: a saturated, slightly cool yellow-green with the satin finish of cooked legume pod.
