#535840 sits at 72° on the color wheel, placing it in the yellow family of the warm half of the spectrum. With 16% saturation and 30% lightness, it reads as a heavily muted, shadowed tone — a balanced mid-energy presence that sits comfortably alongside other UI tones. Its RGB mix of 83, 88, 64 produces a 7.40:1 contrast ratio against white, which clears WCAG AAA for body text in that pairing.
In RGB space #535840 is a clear variant of CSS dim gray — about 50 units away from #696969. Designers reach for yellow hues at this saturation when the brief calls for restraint and atmosphere, and at this lightness when they want a present, comfortable mid-canvas voice. On screen the warm cast tends to pair best with cool neutrals around 210°-230° to balance temperature.
