Color and Contrast

Text should be displayed with the highest possible contrast. Generally, black text on a white background is the most readable.

The older we are, the more difficult it becomes to tell the difference between one shade of blue and another. Small blue text becomes increasingly difficult to read, to the point that the text becomes unreadable. Therefore, don't select blue as your site's text color.

Different colors may be used for aesthetic or other reasons. But it should only be used for larger or highlighted text, such as headlines and titles.

Make sure that information conveyed with color is also conveyed in the absence of color.
