#42AB1C sits at 104° on the color wheel, placing it in the chartreuse family of the neutral half of the spectrum. With 72% saturation and 39% 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 66, 171, 28 produces a 7.07:1 contrast ratio against black, which clears WCAG AAA for body text in that pairing.
In RGB space #42AB1C is a clear variant of CSS forest green — about 46 units away from #228B22. Designers reach for chartreuse 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 balanced cast tends to pair best with either warm or cool accents depending on the surrounding palette.
