Suggested color roles

primary

#9B6886 - A deep, muted rose-plum, ideal for primary branding elements, strong headings, or key interactive components to establish elegance.

secondary

#B880A0 - Use this rich, dusty rose for supporting headers, important subtext, or secondary navigation, adding warmth and sophistication.

accent

#D0A0B8 - A softer, blush pink, perfect for subtle highlights, interactive states, or decorative details that need a gentle pop.

background

#F8E0E8 - A very light, almost white pink, excellent for clean, spacious backgrounds that allow other elements to breathe and stand out.

text

For dark text, a deep charcoal like #333333 provides good contrast. For light text on darker elements, #F8E0E8 or pure white is suitable.

Accessibility notes

  • Ensure sufficient contrast when using #F8E0E8 as a background with lighter text colors; consider #9B6886 or a dark charcoal for readability.
  • Text in #E6C1D0 or #D0A0B8 against white or very light backgrounds will likely lack sufficient contrast for WCAG AA.
  • Use #9B6886 for important interactive elements to ensure they are clearly visible against lighter shades.
  • For best readability, avoid placing #E6C1D0 text on #F8E0E8 backgrounds.
