#E6996D sits at 22° on the color wheel, placing it in the orange family of the warm half of the spectrum. With 71% saturation and 66% lightness, it reads as a richly saturated, light tone — a balanced mid-energy presence that sits comfortably alongside other UI tones. Its RGB mix of 230, 153, 109 produces a 9.14:1 contrast ratio against black, which clears WCAG AAA for body text in that pairing.
In RGB space #E6996D is a clear variant of CSS salmon — about 32 units away from #FA8072. Designers reach for orange hues at this saturation when the brief calls for bold, immediate signal, 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.
