RAL 320 40 15

Muted Safari Khaki

RAL 320 40 15 Muted Safari Khaki occupies hue 320, lightness 40, and a moderate chroma of 15, a subdued mid-dark olive-yellow that bridges warm khaki and olive grey like the surface of sun-bleached safari canvas. It is a natural choice for safari outfitter interior elements, heritage structural finishes, and natural material colour coordination. The moderate saturation gives it a grounded, expedition quality that blends seamlessly with leather, aged brass, and weathered timber.
