Lush Green
Also known as: Green Cacophony, Leafy Lemon, Virtual Golf, Pick Your Poison
Lush Green sits on the warm side of the spectrum: a vivid green that feels calm and balanced. Try it in wellness brands and eco packaging. Reach for a purple companion shade to give Lush Green maximum contrast. Against dark backgrounds it stays legible (15.34:1), but avoid it as text on white.

Where Lush Green works
- Web & UI: Best as a button fill, badge, or accent — pair it with white text only at large sizes, and check contrast.
- 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.
