Specifically, Contrast Deep Green has a lightness of 36% and a saturation of 100%, striking and generous as a background or primary color, offering good readability with either light or dark text; moreover, its saturation is extremely high and its visual tension is strong, so it works best used sparingly as a focal accent. In a word: Paired with red, as in the forest backdrop of Princess Mononoke, to strengthen the visual contrast.

For this reason Contrast Deep Green tends to leave a first impression of being cool and reliable in the viewer’s mind, and this emotional tone also defines the role it plays in design.
