Accessibility notes

  • These muted pastels require careful contrast checks; dark text is essential for readability to meet WCAG AA standards.
  • Avoid pairing #F0EAD6 or #EAD6C7 with other light pastels for text or critical information due to low contrast.
  • Ensure all interactive elements have a clear visual indicator (e.g., a darker border on hover) beyond color alone.
