Under warm 2700K interior light Mosque shifts subtly: leans toward green; in north-facing or shaded light it is virtually unchanged. Overall drift across common illuminants is small (max ΔE ≈ 1.2), so it is a lighting-stable choice.

Against white it measures 7.53:1 and against black 2.79:1, 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.
#7ab0ac · #4d8b87 · #005f5b · #004340 · #00211f · #000504
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.
#4b7c8d · #2b6e75 · #005f5b · #054e3f · #0e3d26 · #122b0f
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.
#94aec3 · #6191b6 · #5b7183 · #005f5b · #00413e · #002523
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.
#99bcb9 · #b47981 · #005f5b · #273937 · #00201e · #000606
The anchor as the only color in the room. True neutrals or complement-warmed near-neutrals let it stay dominant.
#f9eff0 · #a2afae · #70696a · #005f5b · #2f3d3c · #020101
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.
#faeff0 · #d3c6c7 · #a7989a · #301f21 · #0c0203 · #005f5b
The opposite hue on the perceptual wheel, tempered to field strength — warm/cool tension without vibration.
#d9e0bb · #9cce8f · #ee30b4 · #765d94 · #005f5b · #170621
The complement's two neighbours instead of the complement itself — strong contrast with a lower clash risk.
#ffedef · #c79eb8 · #915c49 · #005f5b · #502c45 · #0d0100
Three hues spaced evenly around the wheel; the anchor leads and the other two are held at supporting strength.
#f6eefe · #b8a2c9 · #876338 · #005f5b · #4f330f · #020005
Two complementary pairs offset by 90° — the richest chord, kept usable by a strict lightness hierarchy.

#235D59 · #345A57 · #415755
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.
