Jazzed Pommery

#bae064
Notes

Jazzed Pommery (#BAE064) is a true lime with a vibrant character. It holds its own as a focal accent, carrying visual weight without tipping into neon territory. Its HSL profile (78°, 67%, 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.

Jazzed

American slang jazz, liveliness — past-participle of jazz. As a color modifier, jazzed implies a saturated-and-excited-and-active quality, the bright color of American-Jazz-Age poster-and-album-cover saturated-and-rhythmic graphic-design. Sits at the bright-and-active end of the grid, parallel to caffeinated and wired in usage.

Pommery
noun

The Champagne house founded in Reims in 1858 — and the saturated yellow of Pommery Brut Royal vintage labeling. Pommery refers to a vintage Pommery Champagne in a flute: a soft, slightly cool warm pale yellow with the optical clarity of long-aged sparkling wine. Warmer than champagne.

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.
