The color #134A3F, also known as Te Papa Green, presents some accessibility challenges, especially when used as text on a white background. Its low luminance contrast ratio may not meet WCAG (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines) requirements for normal-sized text. Therefore, it's recommended to use it for larger text elements or graphic elements where contrast is less critical. To ensure accessibility, consider pairing it with a much lighter color for text or a darker color for backgrounds. Tools are available online to check color contrast ratios and ensure compliance with accessibility standards. Using color alone to convey important information should always be avoided; supplement with text or other visual cues to cater to users with visual impairments.
