Suggested color roles

Employ #36222F for main content blocks or panels, offering a rich, dark purple-brown that adds depth without being absolute black.

For optimal readability on dark backgrounds, use a very light grey or crisp white. #7A5B6F can be used for larger headings or decorative text.

Accessibility notes

  • Crucially, ensure all text has sufficient contrast against these dark, low-luminosity backgrounds; light text is essential.
  • Avoid using mid-tones such as #5D3E4F for small text on similar values like #36222F to prevent readability issues.
  • Reserve #7A5B6F for larger headings or accents; its lighter value may still struggle as body text on the darkest hues.
  • Clearly define interactive elements with distinct color changes or outlines to aid navigation.
