Accessibility notes

  • Always use a dark gray or charcoal for text on these light pastel colors to ensure sufficient contrast.
  • Avoid using any palette color for small text elements due to very low contrast with light backgrounds.
  • Ensure interactive elements (buttons, links) have a clear visual state change and sufficient contrast.
  • Use larger font sizes or bolding for any text set in #E6ADAE or #C8D9CB for better visibility.
