How to use #67af3c

Derived from its contrast, chroma and lightness — not from taste.

Works well for
  • Text and icons on dark surfaces
  • Primary buttons and calls to action
  • Focus rings, active and selected states
  • Brand accents, badges and data highlights
  • Chart series and data categories
Use with care
  • Text of any size on white — fails WCAG AA
  • Full-page backgrounds — tiring over long sessions
  • Status meaning — pair it with an icon or label, never colour alone
  • Pairing with a same-lightness hue — edges vibrate
Minimum size as text on white
Not as text
Safe as a fill behind white type
No — use #385F21
Safe as a 1px border on white
No — use #60A438

Meaning and mood

What a colour in this family tends to signal, and how this particular chroma and lightness change the reading.

safegrowingnaturalpermissive

Green means go, well, and grown. It carries finance, sustainability and health with almost no explanation needed.

This is a confident chroma: strong enough to lead a brand, restrained enough to live in an interface all day. The mid lightness keeps it versatile in both themes.

Worth knowing

Red/green pairs are the most common colour-blindness failure — never let the two carry meaning alone.

#67af3c, answered

What color is #67af3c?

#67af3c is a balanced vivid green, closest to Lime Green (ΔE2000 9). It sits at 98° on the hue wheel with 49% saturation and 46% lightness, which reads as neutral.

What is the RGB value of #67af3c?

rgb(103, 175, 60) — 103 red, 175 green and 60 blue out of 255, or 40.4% / 68.6% / 23.5% by channel.

What is #67af3c in HSL and HSV?

hsl(98, 49%, 46%) and hsv(98, 66%, 69%). HSL is what CSS takes; HSV is what your design tool's picker shows, which is why the saturation numbers rarely match.

Is #67af3c a light or a dark color?

It is a mid-tone. Relative luminance is 0.3387 and perceived brightness is 58%, so black text on it reaches 7.77:1.

Should I use black or white text on #67af3c?

Black. It scores 7.77:1 against #67af3c, versus 2.70:1 for white — AAA at any size.

Is #67af3c accessible on a white background?

#67af3c on white scores 2.70:1, which fails WCAG AA at every size. Darken it to #4C812C to reach 4.5:1, or #3A6322 for 7:1.

What is the complementary color of #67af3c?

#843CAF sits directly opposite on the wheel. Softer options are the split-complements #4B3CAF and #AF3CA0, which give the same contrast with far less vibration.

What colors go well with #67af3c?

For interface work: #F7FAF4 as the surface, #D1EAC2 for borders, #699B4B for secondary text, #6637B4 as an accent and #385F21 for hover and pressed states. For a palette, the analogous pair #A0AF3C and #3CAF4B stays calm, while #843CAF is the loudest partner.

What is #67af3c in CMYK for printing?

cmyk(41%, 0%, 66%, 31%). This is a screen-to-ink approximation — ask your printer for a proof before committing to a run.

Is #67af3c warm or cool?

Neutral — it scores 53 on a scale where 0 is the warmest orange and 100 the coolest azure. Nudged warmer it becomes #91AF3C; nudged cooler, #3BB13A.

Which Tailwind color is closest to #67af3c?

The green family — its 500 step is #22c55e, ΔE2000 9.4 away. That is a visible difference, so define #67af3c as a custom token rather than reaching for the built-in.

How do I use #67af3c in Tailwind CSS?

Inline it as an arbitrary value with bg-[#67af3c] or text-[#67af3c], or register the whole ramp under theme.extend.colors.brand so you get bg-brand-500 and friends. The generated 50–950 scale on this page is ready to paste into your config.

What is #67af3c with 50% opacity?

rgba(103, 175, 60, 0.5), or #67af3c80 in eight-digit hex. Over white that composites to #B3D79E; over black, #34581E.

Is #67af3c a web-safe color?

No. The nearest web-safe colour is #669933, ΔE2000 6.7 away. The palette only matters for legacy displays and some email clients now.

What does the color #67af3c mean?
