#283C12 sits at 89° on the color wheel, placing it in the chartreuse family of the neutral half of the spectrum. With 54% saturation and 15% lightness, it reads as a moderately saturated, deep tone — a balanced mid-energy presence that sits comfortably alongside other UI tones. Its RGB mix of 40, 60, 18 produces a 12.03:1 contrast ratio against white, which clears WCAG AAA for body text in that pairing.
In RGB space #283C12 is a distant relative of CSS black — about 74 units away from #000000. Designers reach for chartreuse hues at this saturation when the brief calls for a conversational, mid-energy register, and at this lightness when they want weight, depth, and grounded contrast. On screen the balanced cast tends to pair best with either warm or cool accents depending on the surrounding palette.
