#ADA56E sits at 52° on the color wheel, placing it in the yellow family of the warm half of the spectrum. With 28% 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, 165, 110 produces a 8.38:1 contrast ratio against black, which clears WCAG AAA for body text in that pairing.
In RGB space #ADA56E is a clear variant of CSS rosy brown — about 42 units away from #BC8F8F. 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.
