About Muted Lime

Muted Lime looks like a greenhouse label that's been left out in daylight too long, then softened: not chart-bright, and not honeyed like a gold. At a glance it reads light green-family, with a low-key, powdery saturation that keeps it from popping like or drifting yellow like .

I use Muted Lime when I need a highlight that stays friendly in UI, especially in dashboards and operations screens for logistics, inventory, and retail back office. It's my the one you reach for shade for section chips, inline data callouts, and small status tags over off-whites, where or would feel either too gold or too creamy. Compared to those, this one holds a steadier green undertone instead of turning settled wheat.

One quirk: pair it carefully with cool grays, because it can read slightly more yellow-green than you expect. Warm neutrals and deep olive anchors keep it grounded.
