#2A8E16 sits at 110° on the color wheel, placing it in the green family of the cool half of the spectrum. With 73% saturation and 32% lightness, it reads as a richly saturated, shadowed tone — a balanced mid-energy presence that sits comfortably alongside other UI tones. Its RGB mix of 42, 142, 22 produces a 4.98:1 contrast ratio against black, which clears WCAG AA for body text in that pairing.
In RGB space #2A8E16 is a close cousin of CSS forest green — about 15 units away from #228B22. Designers reach for green hues at this saturation when the brief calls for bold, immediate signal, and at this lightness when they want a present, comfortable mid-canvas voice. On screen the cool cast tends to pair best with warm neutrals in the 25°-45° range to add life.
