#E9C865 sits at 45° on the color wheel, placing it in the yellow family of the warm half of the spectrum. With 75% saturation and 65% 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 233, 200, 101 produces a 12.91:1 contrast ratio against black, which clears WCAG AAA for body text in that pairing.
In RGB space #E9C865 is a clear variant of CSS tan — about 49 units away from #D2B48C. Designers reach for yellow 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.
