#09685B sits at 172° on the color wheel, placing it in the cyan family of the cool half of the spectrum. With 84% saturation and 22% lightness, it reads as a richly saturated, deep tone — a weighted, dramatic presence with deep undertones. Its RGB mix of 9, 104, 91 produces a 6.68:1 contrast ratio against white, which clears WCAG AA for body text in that pairing.
In RGB space #09685B is a clear variant of CSS teal — about 45 units away from #008080. Designers reach for cyan hues at this saturation when the brief calls for bold, immediate signal, and at this lightness when they want weight, depth, and grounded contrast. On screen the cool cast tends to pair best with warm neutrals in the 25°-45° range to add life.
