Bountiful Berry

#e04cad
Notes

Bountiful Berry (#E04CAD) is a true magenta with a vibrant character. It holds its own as a focal accent, carrying visual weight without tipping into neon territory. Its HSL profile (321°, 70%, 59%) 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

Bountiful
adjective

Old French bonté, goodness — adjectival suffix -ful. As a color modifier, bountiful implies a saturated-and-generous-and-abundant quality where the hue offers visual richness without measure. Sits at the bold-and-saturated end of the grid, parallel to abundant and plentiful in usage.

Berry
noun

A general-purpose color name for the deep blue-purple of Vaccinium blueberries, Sambucus elderberries, and the Aronia black-chokeberries that mark hedgerows in autumn. The color refers to a ripe wild blueberry's bloom-coated skin: a deep, slightly violet-shifted blue with the powdery finish of waxy fruit. Cooler than wine, warmer than indigo, with the foraged-fruit specificity of a word that covers half-a-dozen species.

Wide gamut

Display P3 representation

The CSS Color 4 wide-gamut form of this color. Both swatches render the same color on every display — the P3 form only diverges from sRGB when a designer pushes channels outside sRGB's reach.

This color is chromatic enough that authoring it as P3 native (instead of clamping to sRGB) gives a perceptibly more saturated render on wide-gamut displays — modern Macs, iPhones, iPads, and most recent OLED laptops.
