#DCE6C9 sits at 81° on the color wheel, placing it in the chartreuse family of the neutral half of the spectrum. With 37% saturation and 85% lightness, it reads as a softly muted, very light tone — a balanced mid-energy presence that sits comfortably alongside other UI tones. Its RGB mix of 220, 230, 201 produces a 16.21:1 contrast ratio against black, which clears WCAG AAA for body text in that pairing.
In RGB space #DCE6C9 is a close cousin of CSS gainsboro — about 21 units away from #DCDCDC. 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 lift, air, and gentle emphasis. On screen the balanced cast tends to pair best with either warm or cool accents depending on the surrounding palette.
