#8F1500 Hex Color

White text reads most clearly on #8f1500, with a contrast ratio of about 9.2:1. That comfortably passes WCAG AA for small body text. Dark text fails here, so keep type light.

Cream, warm gray, and muted gold flatter #8f1500 without competing with its depth. Olive and charcoal make grounded supporting tones for a fuller palette.
