The hex color #065AAE, also known as Endeavour, presents some accessibility challenges, particularly concerning color contrast. When using this color for text or interactive elements, it is crucial to ensure sufficient contrast against the background. According to WCAG guidelines, a contrast ratio of at least 4.5:1 is recommended for standard text and 3:1 for large text (14pt bold or 18pt regular). Using a color contrast checker is highly advisable to verify compliance. Due to its relatively dark nature, #065AAE generally requires lighter backgrounds to meet accessibility standards. Implementing text shadows or borders can also improve readability when contrast is borderline. Moreover, avoid using this color as the sole indicator for interactive elements; supplement it with clear visual cues like underlines or icons to cater to users with color vision deficiencies. Thorough testing with diverse user groups is essential to confirm the design's overall accessibility.
