Suggested color roles

primary

#FFFFFF can serve as a pristine, expansive background, offering ultimate clarity.

secondary

Use #E0FFFF or #ADD8E6 for subtle texture, light backgrounds, or secondary information panels.

accent

#87CEEB provides a vibrant, refreshing accent, perfect for calls to action, interactive elements, or key highlights.

background

#FFFFFF or #E0FFFF offer bright, clean canvases. #ADD8E6 can be used for slightly tinted sections.

text

A dark charcoal or black is essential for text on these very light backgrounds to ensure readability.

Accessibility notes

  • Crucially, ensure high contrast for all text. Black or very dark gray is necessary for text on #FFFFFF, #E0FFFF, #B0E0E6, #ADD8E6, and #87CEEB.
  • Avoid using any of the lighter blues for text on backgrounds like #FFFFFF or #E0FFFF, as contrast will be insufficient.
  • Use #87CEEB primarily for graphical elements or large headings, as small text may struggle with contrast on lighter blues.
  • Rely on strong visual cues like bolding or icons in addition to color for interactive elements.
