#8B2B0A sits at 15° on the color wheel, placing it in the orange family of the warm half of the spectrum. With 87% saturation and 29% lightness, it reads as a fully saturated, shadowed tone — a weighted, dramatic presence with deep undertones. Its RGB mix of 139, 43, 10 produces a 8.58:1 contrast ratio against white, which clears WCAG AAA for body text in that pairing.
In RGB space #8B2B0A is a clear variant of CSS brown — about 41 units away from #A52A2A. Designers reach for orange 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 warm cast tends to pair best with cool neutrals around 210°-230° to balance temperature.
