Under warm 2700K interior light Forestry shifts subtly: drifts toward yellow-green; in north-facing or shaded light it is virtually unchanged. Overall drift across common illuminants is small (max ΔE ≈ 0.8), so it is a lighting-stable choice.

Against white it measures 10.67:1 and against black 1.97:1, so white text is the stronger pairing. That pairing passes WCAG AA for body text. Avoid black text on this color entirely.
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.
#8fa083 · #697c5c · #445936 · #2f441f · #081900 · #000200
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.
#457a70 · #376954 · #305737 · #2f441f · #2c3203 · #262100
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.
#94bab4 · #849a74 · #38827a · #3f5f5a · #2f441f · #172a06
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.
#b7c1b0 · #9376a4 · #565d51 · #2f441f · #192610 · #040c00
The anchor as the only color in the room. True neutrals or complement-warmed near-neutrals let it stay dominant.
#f4f0f7 · #b7bdb3 · #888489 · #51574d · #2f441f · #28242a
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.
#ecf6e5 · #c2cdba · #2f441f · #18270c · #000500 · #a1d77a
The opposite hue on the perceptual wheel, tempered to field strength — warm/cool tension without vibration.
#b0e1df · #92cb98 · #9d77b0 · #6b40d2 · #2f441f · #030e24
The complement's two neighbours instead of the complement itself — strong contrast with a lower clash risk.
#f7eefd · #b4b6e1 · #a67492 · #505077 · #2f441f · #331f2b
Three hues spaced evenly around the wheel; the anchor leads and the other two are held at supporting strength.
#e9f3ff · #a0bde1 · #ae7379 · #74464b · #2f441f · #192738
Two complementary pairs offset by 90° — the richest chord, kept usable by a strict lightness hierarchy.

#324326 · #35412D · #384033
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.
