#E3AE8C sits at 23° on the color wheel, placing it in the orange family of the warm half of the spectrum. With 61% saturation and 72% lightness, it reads as a moderately saturated, light tone — a balanced mid-energy presence that sits comfortably alongside other UI tones. Its RGB mix of 227, 174, 140 produces a 10.70:1 contrast ratio against black, which clears WCAG AAA for body text in that pairing.
In RGB space #E3AE8C is a close cousin of CSS tan — about 18 units away from #D2B48C. Designers reach for orange 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 warm cast tends to pair best with cool neutrals around 210°-230° to balance temperature.
