Suggested color roles

primary

Use #008BD3 (Vibrant Sky Blue) for main interactive elements, key highlights, or primary branding that needs to be clear and engaging.

secondary

Apply #005B85 (Strong Cerulean) for secondary calls-to-action, section headers, or to provide a deeper blue contrast against lighter elements.

accent

Reserve #00D0FF (Electric Cyan) for subtle glows, hover effects, or small, critical alerts that need to cut through the darker blues.

background

Utilize #0D1C2E (Deep Indigo) as the darkest blue, providing a profound, cool background that allows lighter blues to emerge and glow.

text

Pair #00D0FF (Electric Cyan) or #008BD3 (Vibrant Sky Blue) for headings; use white for general body text on dark backgrounds.

Accessibility notes

  • Ensure sufficient contrast for text, especially when using adjacent shades like #003049 on #0D1C2E. Prioritize #00D0FF or white on darker blues.
  • Avoid using #0D1C2E and #003049 for critical information if color is the sole differentiator, due to their similar dark values.
  • Use #0D1C2E provides an excellent dark background for lighter blue or white text, ensuring good readability.
  • For color-blind users, avoid relying solely on subtle blue shifts for conveying critical information.
