Under warm 2700K interior light Bold Irish shifts subtly: leans toward yellow-green; in north-facing or shaded light it is virtually unchanged. Overall drift across common illuminants is small (max ΔE ≈ 1.3), so it is a lighting-stable choice.

Against white it measures 4.83:1 and against black 4.35:1, so white text is the stronger pairing. That pairing passes WCAG AA for body text.
One color explored: close hues with real lightness and chroma structure, so the palette is the anchor through value rather than a set of colors.
#97d4a9 · #69af7f · #2a814d · #0a6536 · #003f1e · #001c09
The anchor's neighbours on the wheel — everything shares an undertone, so the chord carries color without anything having to be muted to get along.
#45a499 · #2e9375 · #2a814d · #3d6b2a · #445403 · #433e00
The mid-gap pairing — sage and mustard, terracotta and olive. A foil rotated 40–65° toward warm or cool: too far to be kin, too near to argue, carried by temperature and a deliberate value offset.
#31bfcd · #60969c · #2a814d · #196137 · #004421 · #002428
One deliberately opposed voice — a single restrained counterpoint across the wheel, or temperature against temperature where the anchor is too muted to carry a loud opposite.
#b7dfc2 · #c67fb9 · #2a814d · #415546 · #133b22 · #071d0f
The anchor as the only color in the room. True neutrals or complement-warmed near-neutrals let it stay dominant.
#f9eef6 · #7e8d82 · #2a814d · #595258 · #18271c · #020002
This color as a ground rather than a subject — its own restraint held across a narrow value band, carrying one saturated voice from the opposite temperature.
#f9eef6 · #d1c4ce · #a597a2 · #2c1c29 · #090107 · #2a814d
The opposite hue on the perceptual wheel, tempered to field strength — warm/cool tension without vibration.
#d3d6b0 · #9fc489 · #b874f5 · #2a814d · #455691 · #0b092f
The complement's two neighbours instead of the complement itself — strong contrast with a lower clash risk.
#ffebfb · #947ab7 · #2a814d · #87344e · #2d1148 · #110003
Three hues spaced evenly around the wheel; the anchor leads and the other two are held at supporting strength.
#edf1ff · #7684c1 · #2a814d · #893726 · #460500 · #01000e
Two complementary pairs offset by 90° — the richest chord, kept usable by a strict lightness hierarchy.

Its moderate chroma lets it work in mid-size areas — upholstery, secondary UI surfaces, editorial blocks — without overwhelming neighbors. In palettes it pairs most predictably with its tonal ramp and analogous neighbors; reserve the complementary hue for small, deliberate contrast.
