Leafy Lush

Also known as: Overgrown Temple, Forest Ride, Nature’s Masterpiece, Zelyony Green

Quietly fresh and natural, Leafy Lush is a cool-toned green that earns its keep in finance apps and outdoor gear. Because it leans cool, balancing it with a pink keeps a palette from feeling one-note. It's dark enough to use for text on white backgrounds (6.91:1, passes WCAG AA).

Where Leafy Lush works

  • Web & UI: Dark enough for body text and icons on white backgrounds — it passes WCAG AA as-is.
  • Interiors: Strong for a whole room, excellent in doses: an accent wall, cabinetry, or a statement chair.
  • Fashion: Wears best as the statement piece — a top, scarf, or shoes — against neutral basics.
  • Branding: Reads as growth and sustainability — at home in wellness, food, and environmental brands.
  • Web & UI: A supporting-cast color for UI: chart fills, tags, empty-state illustrations — not text.
  • Branding: A secondary brand color by nature: it supports a stronger primary and shines in illustration.
