Negishi Green

Negishi Green looks like fresh ink on matte paper, but it still has the grounded weight of a field leaf at dusk. Compared to Amazon Queen, it does not go that aged-brass neutral at small sizes, and compared to Green Olive it stays more clearly green, less yellowed and less softened. It sits in the Goldilocks zone: moderate saturation with a cooler, steadier undertone than Jalapeño, so it feels poised instead of nudging toward limes or browns.

I use it when the interface needs a green that holds its color under real layouts, not just flat swatches. It's a good fit for editorial layouts, product dashboards in logistics and agtech, and brand systems where headers, chips, and section bands need to feel intentional. In product UI backgrounds, it works as the one you reach for when you want contrast without that brass drift or the olive drift.

Pair it with warm off-whites and deep charcoal, and keep metallic accents subtle if they're nearby, since overly honeyed colors can pull it toward Jalapeño's direction.
