#C4BAC9 Hex Color

Black text is the strongest choice on #c4bac9, reaching about 11.2:1 contrast and exceeding the WCAG AA requirement of 4.5:1 for normal body text. Light text will provide much weaker readability.

Pair #c4bac9 with charcoal for crisp structure or burgundy for richer contrast; both combinations balance its pale, greyed violet base without overwhelming delicate layouts. Use the purple as a supporting tone rather than a small accent.
