Forest & mustard colour palette: deep green and yellow hex codes for your planner

Forest green and mustard yellow, with a lighter fern and a parchment cream. It looks like a walk in the woods when the first leaves have turned.

Where each colour goes

Colour	Hex	Use it for
Work (forest green)	#2F4F3A	Work blocks, in a deep, steady green
Health (fern)	#5E7F5A	Walks and time outdoors, in a lighter fern
Personal (mustard)	#D9A21B	The bright one, for the people and plans you look forward to
Goals (parchment)	#F2E8CF	Your goals, on a quiet parchment
Accent (forest green)	#2F4F3A	Buttons, today’s date and highlights
Protected time (parchment)	#F2E8CF	A soft wash over your protected time

A whole wood, and one yellow leaf

Three of these colours are calm: two greens and a cream. Mustard is the only bright one, so your eye goes to it first. It’s on Personal here, so the fun parts of the week stand out. If you’d like your goals to stand out instead, swap the two.

Your week in forest & mustard

The week at the top of this post is a real week in Anser, in the Summer Picnic style with the Bold look for categories, so every event shows its full colour. To get the same look, open Settings › Appearance › Colours › How categories look and choose Bold. The palette works in every style.

A week with some woods in it

• One long walk, somewhere with trees.
• Lunch outside while it’s still warm enough.
• Bring something green indoors. A branch in a jar will do.
• Leave Sunday afternoon open.
