Exploring the Color #769071

#769071 sits at 110° on the color wheel, placing it in the green family of the cool half of the spectrum. With 12% saturation and 50% lightness, it reads as a heavily muted, balanced tone — a quiet, restrained presence that recedes rather than competes. Its RGB mix of 118, 144, 113 produces a 6.00:1 contrast ratio against black, which clears WCAG AA for body text in that pairing.

In RGB space #769071 is a close cousin of CSS gray — about 24 units away from #808080.
