Accessibility notes

  • All colors in this palette are very light; ensure text is always a significantly darker shade (e.g., black, dark grey) for readability.
  • Avoid using any two colors from this palette together for text and background without careful contrast checking.
  • When using these colors for interactive elements, provide clear visual cues beyond color (e.g., icons, underlines) for states.
  • The subtle differences between #FFF9E0 and #FEF7D2 might be hard to distinguish for some users; use them for different purposes.
