| #fcfced as text | Ratio | AA | AA large | AAA | Fix |

Aaon white | 1.04:1 | fail | fail | fail | |

Chestnut and forest on cream read like a cloth-bound spine; the palette recedes so covers and type do the talking.
Two greys and one ink-blue link color: the palette of a well-set book page.
A sober docs palette: one blue for interactive, one green for success, zinc greys for everything else.
Sage and terracotta feel natural and calm — the anti-hospital palette for wellbeing brands.
Tomato, leaf and honey — the three colors of a produce stand, warm enough to make anything look fresh.
Terracotta, eucalyptus and sand — a sun-washed palette that feels like linen.
Timber and olive for homes that photograph in golden hour; nothing here competes with a good listing photo.
Sage and clay on unbleached white — the nothing-to-hide palette for ingredient-led skincare.
Pastel coral, sky and butter — soft enough for a newborn brand, with warm brown text instead of harsh black.
Orange, blue and green — the colors of playground equipment; loud, cheerful, obviously for kids.
Saffron and clove with a teal counterpoint — spice-market warmth, balanced so it doesn't go orange everywhere.
Deep pine on paper-white with a marmalade accent — a quiet, sustainable-brand palette that isn't beige.
The three colours a maple goes through in October, on a warm white — loud, seasonal, and readable because the type is near-black.
Rose, sky and pistachio at patisserie strength — the pastel trio, with a plum-grey text colour so it never washes out.
Mint and celadon with a peach accent — fresh without being clinical; the deep green text keeps it grounded.
Sandstone and sand with a deep teal — the one cool note makes the warm colours look intentional rather than beige.
Laser green, violet and cyan — the synthwave/gaming set; keep the type near-white and let one neon own each screen.
Cherry red, mint-teal and butter yellow — chrome-and-vinyl retro; the red does the work, the teal cools it.
Washed coral, faded aqua and a mustard — the 1970s film look, desaturated so it feels found rather than designed.
Orange, lime leaf and lemon — a citrus palette that reads fresh, for drinks, produce and anything seasonal.
Blaze orange and hot yellow with one cold blue — the high-noon palette; use the blue where the eye needs to rest.
Navy and frost with one ember red — the classic cold-with-a-warm-accent structure, borrowed from a thousand ski posters.
Fresh green, buttercup and a wildflower pink — spring at full saturation; the leaf-dark text does the anchoring.
Cherry blossom, new leaf and pale primrose — a soft spring set for florists, weddings and anything that opens in April.
Wet-leaf teal and moss with a soft peach — an overcast spring, calmer than the bright version and better for long reading.
Apricot into coral into plum — a sunset flattened to three tokens, with the plum doubling as the twilight text colour.
Red through orange to yellow — the poured-drink gradient as flat tokens; use it left-to-right, never all at once.
Sea-green and slate with a coral — a literal tide pool: two cool tones, one warm creature.
Deep green and new-leaf mint with a bark-pink accent — a forest that reads calm rather than camo.
One deep pine on birch-white with sage and bark greys — Scandinavian forest: mostly light, one committed green.
Five greys, no hue — the true monochrome; the accent is a lighter grey, so hierarchy comes from weight and size alone.
Stone greys with a faint warmth — Tailwind's stone scale used as a whole palette: interfaces that want to disappear.
Sage green, blush and a soft gold on ivory — the wedding palette of the decade, with text dark enough for an actual invitation.
Burgundy, gold and a blush on warm white — the evening wedding set; burgundy carries the formality, blush the softness.
