Accessibility notes

  • Ensure sufficient contrast when pairing Firebrick (#B22222) or Crimson (#DC143C) with Khaki (#F0E68C) for text; larger text sizes may be needed for WCAG AA compliance.
  • Orange Red (#FF4500) and Orange (#FFA500) are highly vibrant; avoid using them for large blocks of small text to prevent eye strain.
  • Consider using a very dark color (e.g., black or #333333) for primary body text against Khaki (#F0E68C) to maximize readability.
  • Test all text and interactive element color combinations against WCAG contrast guidelines, especially for small text.
