Reference notes
#C4A661 is a balanced, clear yellow color closest to Dark Khaki. The color has RGB channels of 196, 166, and 97; in HSL terms, it is centered near 42 degrees with 46% saturation and 57% lightness. In a design system, this warm reading is a useful shortcut for deciding whether the color should act as a primary accent, a supporting surface, or a quiet divider. The safest usage pattern is to test it against both light and dark surfaces, then reserve the weaker text pairing for decoration rather than essential labels. If the color feels too forceful at full strength, the lighter, darker, and desaturated variants usually provide a calmer path for production UI. For editorial or product interfaces, reserve the most saturated use for accents and repeat softer variants in borders, labels, or background fills. This makes it useful for backgrounds, supporting UI surfaces, editorial layouts, and restrained visual systems. In CSS systems, define it as a custom property first so variations, shadows, and gradients can stay consistent.
