RAL 080 20 10
Deep Forest
RAL 080 20 10 Deep Forest sits at hue 080, lightness 20, and chroma 10 in the RAL Design system, producing a very dark muted green with the depth of dense conifer canopy at dusk. This restrained tone is favoured for heritage park gate finishes, woodland shelter exterior trim, and conservation area fencing details. Its low lightness and minimal chroma create a colour that reads nearly black in shadow yet reveals a cool mossy undertone under direct light.
Color Reference
The RAL Design system uses Hue-Lightness-Chroma (HLC) notation. Hue describes the color family (0-360°), Lightness describes brightness (0-100), and Chroma describes saturation intensity (0-100+).
