Notes
Lime Green is the colour Sprite added to its global rebrand in 2008, replacing the more muted bottle-green that Coca-Cola had used since the 1960s. The CSS hex carries enough saturation to feel young and slightly artificial. It works as a CTA or success state in modern UI but tires the eye quickly when used across large surfaces. Pair it with a deep ink #0a0a0a for type and let it claim the moment in the layout where the eye should land. Body text in Lime Green against white passes AA only at sizes 18px and above; for smaller copy step down to a deeper Tailwind Green 700 or similar.
