Hex color #fad4ab graphic
This pale, unsaturated peach offers a gentle warmth without the aggression of a standard orange. Because it is so muted, #fad4ab works best as a supporting background tone rather than a focal point. Pair it with deep charcoal or muted olive to create a sophisticated balance. The hex code for this mellow shade is #fad4ab, which provides enough contrast to remain readable with black text.

Is #fad4ab suitable for UI text on light backgrounds?

Is #fad4ab readable on white or black?
#fad4ab has a 1.39:1 contrast ratio on white and 15.07:1 on black. WCAG asks for 4.5:1 for body text and 3:1 for large text, so on white it is too faint for text and on black it works for body text. Try other pairs in the contrast checker.
