Organized Bloodstone

#d3ef98
Notes

Organized Bloodstone (#D3EF98) is a soft 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°, 73%, 77%) places it in the balanced band at a light lightness. It works as a background wash, large-area fill, or soft illustration tone. Add a darker ink of the same hue when you need type over it. 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.

Bloodstone
noun

A dark green chalcedony with red iron-oxide flecks — used in classical antiquity for engraved seals and Christian-era ornament (the red flecks symbolizing Christ's blood). Also called heliotrope. The color refers to a polished bloodstone cabochon: a saturated, slightly muted dark yellow-green with the optical complexity of red-flecked chalcedony.

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.
