#E17869 Hex Color

Black text reads most clearly on #e17869, with a contrast ratio of about 7.1:1. That clears the WCAG AA threshold of 4.5:1 for body text, while white text falls short and should be avoided for small type.

Deep forest green and slate blue make #e17869 feel grounded, while cream softens its warmth for calmer layouts. For higher contrast, pair it with navy as a dominant base and use this red as an accent.
