Suggested color roles

primary

A soft, light blue, #B0E0E6, suitable for main interactive elements, subtle headings, or foundational light design.

secondary

A slightly deeper sky blue, #ADD8E6, excellent for secondary actions, subtle borders, or background patterns.

accent

A light, clear blue, #C6E2FF, perfect for highlights, hover states, or graphic elements that need a gentle pop.

A very light, almost white, icy blue, #E0FFFF, providing an expansive, clean canvas that feels fresh and open.

text

A dark charcoal or deep navy for maximum readability against the very light background colors like #E0FFFF.

Accessibility notes

  • Due to the lightness of all colors, contrast for text will be a significant challenge. Use a very dark text color (e.g., black or charcoal) on any of these colors.
  • Ensure sufficient contrast for interactive elements, especially when using two light colors together for states.
  • Avoid using lighter shades for small text; reserve them for larger headings or decorative elements.
  • Strictly adhere to WCAG AA guidelines for text color contrast, as this palette is inherently low contrast between its own colors.
