  • Rich Regals 2005 to 2010

Always Artichoke is a deep, soft olive green with an earthy, grounded feel. It suggests artichokes, olives and dried herbs, while still reading as a flexible color rather than a single literal object. The shade has enough personality to stand on its own, but it can also support nearby colors when used with related tones, crisp neutrals or deeper accents. Depending on the surrounding palette, it can read as moss, dried herb, olive or earthy green, which gives it useful range for seasonal, natural, floral and themed designs.

Color Theory

Always Artichoke is a muted yellow-green with a strong earthy influence. It sits near the yellow side of green, but its low brightness and gray-brown undertone make it feel mature, rustic and stable instead of fresh or playful. Its hue of around 60° gives it an olive-yellow green character, its saturation of about 25% keeps it subdued and natural, and its value of about 39% makes it feel dark, grounded and weighty.
