RAL 310 20 10

Deep Moss Hollow

RAL 310 20 10 Deep Moss Hollow sits at hue 310, lightness 20, and chroma 10 in the RAL Design system, producing a very dark muted green-yellow that evokes the concentrated depth of moss growing in shaded forest hollows and the shadowed interior of ancient stone walls. This intense tone is favoured for nature reserve infrastructure elements, heritage garden wall finishes, and woodland museum display cases. Its low lightness and restrained chroma create a colour that reads nearly black yet reveals a cool mossy heart under direct illumination.
