Established Fragola

#c94ca1
Notes

Established Fragola (#C94CA1) 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°, 54%, 54%) 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

Established
adjective

Latin stabilīre, to make stable — past-participle of establish. As a color modifier, established implies a saturated-and-rooted quality where the hue carries the weight of long-standing visual presence. Sits at the bold-and-firm end of the grid, parallel to steadfast and anchored in usage.

Fragola
noun

Italian for strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa) — the deep-pink aggregate-fruit cultivated worldwide and the eponymous flavor-base for gelato alla fragola. Fragola color refers to a freshly hulled Fragaria × ananassa aggregate-fruit cross-section: a saturated, slightly cool deep magenta with the matte finish of anthocyanin-rich strawberry-flesh against the pale yellow-green achenes. The Latin fragāria refers to the fragrance of the wild fruit.
