Accessibility notes

Ensure high contrast between #5A3F34 or #8B6E5B and #F4F1ED for all text to meet AA or AAA accessibility standards.
Avoid using #E0CEC1 or #F4F1ED for text on light backgrounds as contrast will be insufficient.
Test color pairings like #BCA08E on #E0CEC1 carefully for readability, especially for users with color vision deficiencies.
Consider a slightly darker brown or black for critical UI text if the palette's darkest tones don't provide sufficient contrast on all backgrounds.
