#E5D597 sits at 48° on the color wheel, placing it in the yellow family of the warm half of the spectrum. With 60% saturation and 75% lightness, it reads as a moderately saturated, very light tone — a balanced mid-energy presence that sits comfortably alongside other UI tones. Its RGB mix of 229, 213, 151 produces a 14.30:1 contrast ratio against black, which clears WCAG AAA for body text in that pairing.
In RGB space #E5D597 is a close cousin of CSS khaki — about 23 units away from #F0E68C. Designers reach for yellow 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.
