#402E26

The hexcode #402E26 is a lighter, warmer, and less saturated variant of the shade "Bistre". By itself, it is commonly associated with grand (98.9% match), rustic (97.2% match), and sacred (93.9% match). When Bistre is combined with Black, it relates to the terms grand and rustic. When joined with Rich Black, it becomes more related to the term dignified. When Bistre is added to Smoky Black, it shares association with the terms drab and darkness. When paired with its complementary color #263840, a lighter and more saturated variant of the shade "Gunmetal", it shares connection with the terms dignified or quiet. However, when we analyze the color next to its other triadic colors, #263F2D (a shade of "Rifle Green") and #2D263F (a shade of "Dark Purple"), the resulting palette becomes softer and warmer than the complementary color palette and changes from the color index category of "casual" to the "elegant" category. Specifically, the new triad is most suggestive of precious and conservative.
