Accessibility notes

  • Ensure sufficient contrast when pairing #FFDAB9 or #FFE4B5 with light text; dark text is generally required.
  • The darker #DAA520 and #F4A460 provide good contrast for white text, suitable for headings or prominent buttons.
  • Text in #BDB76B can be legible on lighter backgrounds, but always check specific contrast ratios.
  • Avoid using #FFDAB9 text on #FFE4B5 background without careful contrast checking due to very similar lightness.
