Meaning and mood

What a colour in this family tends to signal, and how this particular chroma and lightness change the reading.

friendlyenergeticaffordablesocial

Orange is red with the aggression taken out — approachable, active, and strongly associated with buying and doing.

At this chroma the association is amplified — it will dominate anything placed beside it, so give it space and use it sparingly. The low lightness adds weight and formality.

Worth knowing

Hard to make feel premium, and it collides with the "caution" band in status systems.

What each alpha value actually composites to. The top row is #67390a over white; the bottom row is the same alpha over a checkerboard, so you can see what survives on a photo or a video.

Bottom row of hexes is the flattened result over white — use those when a design tool refuses transparency, or when you need a solid fallback.

#67390a, answered

What color is #67390a?

#67390a is a deep electric orange, closest to Saddle Brown (ΔE2000 8.6). It sits at 30° on the hue wheel with 82% saturation and 22% lightness, which reads as warm.

What is the RGB value of #67390a?

rgb(103, 57, 10) — 103 red, 57 green and 10 blue out of 255, or 40.4% / 22.4% / 3.9% by channel.

What is #67390a in HSL and HSV?

hsl(30, 82%, 22%) and hsv(30, 90%, 40%). HSL is what CSS takes; HSV is what your design tool's picker shows, which is why the saturation numbers rarely match.

Is #67390a a light or a dark color?

It is a dark color. Relative luminance is 0.0583 and perceived brightness is 28%, so white text on it reaches 9.69:1.

Should I use black or white text on #67390a?

White. It scores 9.69:1 against #67390a, versus 2.17:1 for black — AAA at any size.

Is #67390a accessible on a white background?

#67390a on white scores 9.69:1, which clears AAA at every size.

What is the complementary color of #67390a?

#0A3867 sits directly opposite on the wheel. Softer options are the split-complements #0A6767 and #0A0A67, which give the same contrast with far less vibration.

What colors go well with #67390a?

For interface work: #FAF7F4 as the surface, #EDD6C0 for borders, #9B734B for secondary text, #085169 as an accent and #74400B for hover and pressed states. For a palette, the analogous pair #670A0A and #67670A stays calm, while #0A3867 is the loudest partner.

What is #67390a in CMYK for printing?

cmyk(0%, 45%, 90%, 60%). This is a screen-to-ink approximation — a color this saturated sits outside most CMYK gamuts and will print duller than it looks here.

Is #67390a warm or cool?

Warm — it scores 0 on a scale where 0 is the warmest orange and 100 the coolest azure. Nudged warmer it becomes #7E3F0C; nudged cooler, #681609.

Which Tailwind color is closest to #67390a?

The stone family — its 500 step is #78716c, ΔE2000 24.5 away. That is a visible difference, so define #67390a as a custom token rather than reaching for the built-in.

How do I use #67390a in Tailwind CSS?

Inline it as an arbitrary value with bg-[#67390a] or text-[#67390a], or register the whole ramp under theme.extend.colors.brand so you get bg-brand-500 and friends. The generated 50–950 scale on this page is ready to paste into your config.

What is #67390a with 50% opacity?

rgba(103, 57, 10, 0.5), or #67390a80 in eight-digit hex. Over white that composites to #B39C85; over black, #341D05.

Is #67390a a web-safe color?

No. The nearest web-safe colour is #663300, ΔE2000 2.1 away. The palette only matters for legacy displays and some email clients now.
