#E6E6A6 sits at 60° on the color wheel, placing it in the yellow family of the warm half of the spectrum. With 56% saturation and 78% 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 230, 230, 166 produces a 16.23:1 contrast ratio against black, which clears WCAG AAA for body text in that pairing.
In RGB space #E6E6A6 is a clear variant of CSS khaki — about 28 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.
