Suggested color roles

primary

Use #082032 as the dominant dark anchor for headers, footers, or large sections, establishing a sense of depth and stability.

secondary

Employ #2C394B for key navigational elements, secondary headings, or panels, providing a strong contrast to the primary while maintaining cohesion.

accent

Apply #5F7161 or #7B886F sparingly for calls-to-action, interactive elements, or subtle graphic details, adding a touch of natural warmth.

background

Opt for a very light off-white or cream, or a soft variant of #7B886F, to ensure readability and a serene backdrop without overwhelming the darker shades.

text

For body text, use #082032 or #2C394B on light backgrounds. For text on darker backgrounds, use pure white or a light shade like #7B886F for optimal contrast.

Accessibility notes

  • Ensure sufficient contrast between #082032 and light text (e.g., white) for WCAG AA compliance.
  • Avoid placing #5F7161 or #7B886F directly against #334756 for text, as contrast may be insufficient.
  • Utilize a contrast checker for all text-to-background combinations, especially with the mid-tones like #334756.
  • Reserve the lighter #7B886F for larger text or as a background for dark text to maximize readability.
