Suggested color roles

primary

Use #DDA0DD as a gentle yet distinct primary color for headings or key graphical elements, providing a soft focal point.

secondary

Apply #FFB6C1 for supporting elements, subheadings, or backgrounds where a touch of warm pink is desired.

accent

Utilize #F5DEB3 sparingly for subtle highlights, interactive elements, or a unique textural touch.

background

Employ #FFF0F5 as an airy, near-white background to create a sense of spaciousness and allow other colors to softly emerge.

text

For body text, use a dark charcoal or a deep plum (not in palette, but recommended for contrast) to ensure readability, or #E6E6FA for very subtle, decorative text.

Accessibility notes

  • Critical text should use a dark color (e.g., charcoal) for sufficient contrast against #FFF0F5, #E6E6FA, #FFB6C1, and #F5DEB3.
  • Avoid using #E6E6FA, #FFF0F5, or #F5DEB3 for small text sizes, as contrast may be too low for many users.
  • Ensure interactive elements have clear visual feedback, even if using lighter colors for states.
  • When layering colors, always check WCAG contrast guidelines, especially for text and essential UI components.
