#AD856A sits at 24° on the color wheel, placing it in the orange family of the warm half of the spectrum. With 29% saturation and 55% lightness, it reads as a softly muted, light tone — a balanced mid-energy presence that sits comfortably alongside other UI tones. Its RGB mix of 173, 133, 106 produces a 6.34:1 contrast ratio against black, which clears WCAG AA for body text in that pairing.
In RGB space #AD856A is a clear variant of CSS rosy brown — about 41 units away from #BC8F8F. Designers reach for orange 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.
