The subtle variations create depth while maintaining a bright and open aesthetic.

Suggested color roles

primary

#A3E4D7 - A soft, inviting aqua, perfect for main content areas, prominent UI elements, or brand highlights, offering a fresh feel.

secondary

#C6F5ED - A lighter, more delicate aqua, suitable for supporting information, subtle backgrounds, or hover states, adding gentle brightness.

accent

#72C7B9 - A deeper, more saturated aqua, excellent for calls to action, important icons, or key visual elements that need to stand out gently.

background

#F0FFFF - A very light, almost white aqua, creating an expansive, clean, and airy canvas that promotes a feeling of freshness.

text

Black or #72C7B9 - For optimal readability, use black or a very dark grey. For more themed text, #72C7B9 can work well for headings on #F0FFFF.

Accessibility notes

  • Use black or very dark charcoal for body text on any of the lighter aqua backgrounds like #F0FFFF or #E0FFFB to ensure readability.
  • #72C7B9 offers good contrast on #F0FFFF for headings and larger text, but check WCAG for smaller text.
  • Avoid using #C6F5ED or #E0FFFB for text, as their contrast against light backgrounds will be insufficient.
  • Ensure interactive elements are clearly distinguishable, relying on more than just subtle color differences between the light aquas.
