Edamame Bean

October 7, 2025

This hue is inspired by the fresh green of edamame, young soybeans harvested while still tender in their pods. Their soft, vegetal tone comes from chlorophyll, the same pigment that fuels photosynthesis in all green plants. First cultivated in China and embraced in Japan as both food and cultural staple, edamame has become a global snack, enjoyed steamed and salted. The color reflects their crisp, nourishing quality—a natural green that feels both simple and sustaining.
