Does #fcc6c4 work for text-heavy interfaces?
Avoid using #fcc6c4 for body text, as it lacks the contrast required for accessibility standards. It serves better as a subtle background, a soft border, or a delicate accent element when you need a warmer, less clinical aesthetic than standard white or light gray.
Is #fcc6c4 readable on white or black?
#fcc6c4 has a 1.49:1 contrast ratio on white and 14.01:1 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.
