What this means in practice
- Highest contrast: #FFFFFF against #1E2534 at 15.33:1 — the safest pair here for body copy.
- Lowest contrast: #FFFFFF against #FFFFFF at 1.00:1 — decorative use only, it does not meet WCAG AA for text.
- Darkest colour: #1E2534 (Ink, luminance 0.018) — the natural choice for headings.
- Lightest colour: #FFFFFF (White, luminance 1.000) — best used for backgrounds.
- Hue spread: 75° across 2 of 4 colours, which makes this a split-complementary palette.
- Text recommendation: set type in #FFFFFF on a #1E2534 background, and reserve #FFFFFF for borders, icons or accents.
