Accessibility notes

  • Ensure sufficient contrast between #8B817E text and #F4E0E0 background to meet WCAG AA standards.
  • The very light #F4E0E0 and #E8D2D6 will require dark text for optimal contrast; avoid lighter palette colors for text on these backgrounds.
  • When pairing #D6AEAD with #E8D2D6, ensure adequate contrast for UI elements, as they are both light pinks.
  • Avoid using #C7C0BB on #F4E0E0 for critical information due to their similarity in lightness, which can hinder readability.
