#F9A165 sits at 24° on the color wheel, placing it in the orange family of the warm half of the spectrum. With 93% saturation and 69% lightness, it reads as a fully saturated, light tone — an immediate, signal-grade voice that demands attention. Its RGB mix of 249, 161, 101 produces a 10.31:1 contrast ratio against black, which clears WCAG AAA for body text in that pairing.
In RGB space #F9A165 is a clear variant of CSS salmon — about 35 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.
