Quiet Jade
Also known as: Beach Blanket , Shallow Shore , Crystal Rapids , Fabulous Find
A lively green with a grounded and restorative character, Quiet Jade works well for eco packaging and finance apps. Because it leans cool, balancing it with a pink keeps a palette from feeling one-note. Against dark backgrounds it stays legible (14.61:1), but avoid it as text on white.
