How to use it
Suggested roles: #362002 as the background, #4B3708 for cards and surfaces, #7D5809 as the primary brand color, #6F4A10 as the accent, and #FEF0DD for text (a computed lighter shade of Olive, because no palette color is readable on that background). A reliable starting split is 60% background and surface, 30% primary and 10% accent.
Use the lightest color for large areas, the mid tones for structure, and the darkest for text. Add contrast through lightness, since hue will not do it for you.
