#B9C995 sits at 78° on the color wheel, placing it in the chartreuse family of the neutral half of the spectrum. With 32% saturation and 69% 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 185, 201, 149 produces a 11.85:1 contrast ratio against black, which clears WCAG AAA for body text in that pairing.
In RGB space #B9C995 is a clear variant of CSS tan — about 34 units away from #D2B48C. 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 a present, comfortable mid-canvas voice. On screen the balanced cast tends to pair best with either warm or cool accents depending on the surrounding palette.
