Untroubled Punch

#d79bc1
Notes

Untroubled Punch (#D79BC1) is a soft 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 (322°, 43%, 73%) 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 green. For something softer, pull in its analogous neighbors on either side of the wheel.

Etymology

Untroubled
adjective

Latin turbāre, to disturb — negative-prefix un- plus past-participle of trouble. As a color modifier, untroubled implies a clear-and-calm-and-undisturbed quality where the hue carries no visual agitation. Sits at the crisp-and-calm end of the grid, parallel to serene and placid in usage.

Punch
noun

A bright pink-red color named for the surface of a fruit punch — particularly the Tahitian-style punches of mid-century cocktail culture and the brand-name Hawaiian Punch whose color was a signature. The color refers to a saturated, slightly cool red-pink: brighter than fuchsia, warmer than rose, with the mid-century-tropical weight of a color tied to a specific decade of American cookout entertaining.

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.
