Digital Accessibility: Color Contrast

Color contrast is a fundamental aspect of digital accessibility, ensuring that text and important visual elements are easily distinguishable to all users.

Benefits

  • Increase your audience
  • Low vision, color blind, and aging persons can access your content

Choose Colors that Work for Everyone

  • Provide sufficient color contrast
  • Do not rely on color as the sole means to convey information. Add another visual element to indicate meaning, such as an underline or an icon.
