Suggested color roles

primary

Use #ADD8E6 for main headings, key calls to action, or prominent graphical elements to establish a soft yet clear focus.

secondary

Apply #B0E0E6 for supporting text, sub-headings, or background sections that require a slightly deeper, calming blue.

accent

Utilize #ADD8E6 for subtle highlights, interactive states, or small icons to add a gentle, refreshing pop.

background

Employ #F8F8FF as the primary background color, providing an exceptionally clean, airy, and expansive canvas that enhances legibility.

text

For optimal readability on light backgrounds, a dark charcoal (#333333) or black is recommended. For very subtle text on slightly darker elements, #E0FFFF can be used.

Accessibility notes

  • Extreme care is needed for text contrast. Ensure any text on #F8F8FF, #F0F8FF, or #E0FFFF meets WCAG standards.
  • For interactive elements, ensure their color, such as #ADD8E6, provides sufficient contrast against the #F8F8FF background.
  • Avoid using very light colors for small text or critical information. Consider larger font sizes or bolder weights for clarity.
  • Differentiate interactive elements not just by color, but also by hover states, underlines, or icons, given the subtlety of the palette.
