Suggested color roles

Use #B094C2 as the main color for headings or key UI elements, providing a gentle yet distinct presence.

secondary

Employ #D1BADB for supporting text, secondary navigation, or subtle background patterns, maintaining a light and airy feel.

accent

Reserve #8A6E99 for elements requiring a touch more depth or emphasis, such as important icons or subtle calls to action, without overwhelming the palette.

background

The lightest shade, #F5EFF9, is perfect for clean, expansive backgrounds, offering a serene and almost invisible canvas.

text

For optimal readability on light backgrounds like #F5EFF9 or #E9DFF0, a dark charcoal or black is recommended. #8A6E99 can be used for larger, decorative headings.

Accessibility notes

  • Exercise extreme caution with text contrast due to the palette's overall lightness; always check WCAG AA compliance for all text pairings.
  • Prioritize using #8A6E99 for essential text on the lightest backgrounds (e.g., #F5EFF9) to ensure adequate readability.
  • Avoid using #D1BADB or #E9DFF0 for small text or interactive elements as their contrast against light backgrounds will likely be insufficient.
  • Consider increasing font sizes or using bold weights for crucial information to compensate for lower contrast pairings.
