The color #0B1B21, a very dark, desaturated blue-green, presents significant accessibility challenges, especially when used as a background or text color. Its extremely low luminance results in poor contrast against most other colors, including white. This makes it difficult for users with visual impairments, such as low vision or color blindness, to distinguish text or elements using this color. To ensure accessibility, it is crucial to use a very light color for text or interactive elements placed on a #0B1B21 background. Tools for contrast checking should be used to guarantee WCAG compliance (minimum contrast ratio of 4.5:1 for normal text and 3:1 for large text). Avoid using this color for essential visual information or UI elements without careful consideration of contrast and alternative cues. Supplementing color with other visual indicators, such as icons or text labels, can improve usability for all users.
