Suggested color roles

primary

#8ECFD8 (A clear, vibrant aqua-blue, excellent for main headings, prominent buttons, or key UI elements that need a gentle focal point.)

secondary

#A6DCE3 (A lighter, serene blue, ideal for subheadings, secondary interactive elements, or subtle graphical features, offering gentle contrast.)

accent

#C2E7ED (A very light, airy blue, perfect for delicate highlights, hover states, or subtle design accents that need to glimmer.)

background

#EFF9FC (A pristine, almost-white background that ensures maximum readability and a spacious, airy feel for any design.)

text

#8ECFD8 (While a lighter blue, it can be used for large headings on a white background, but a darker charcoal or black is recommended for body text for optimal readability.)

Accessibility notes

  • For body text, use a dark grey or black as the palette lacks a sufficiently dark option for contrast on #EFF9FC.
  • Ensure #8ECFD8 or #A6DCE3 used for interactive elements have a clear visual change on focus/hover for accessibility.
  • Avoid using lighter colors like #DAF4F8 or #EFF9FC for text, as they will not meet contrast requirements on light backgrounds.
  • Always test text and background color combinations against WCAG guidelines for optimal user experience.
