The color #1956B1, also known as Fun Blue, offers moderate accessibility considerations. Its relatively dark hue ensures good contrast on light backgrounds, making it suitable for text and interactive elements. However, when used on dark backgrounds, readability may decrease, especially for users with visual impairments. A contrast ratio of at least 4.5:1 is recommended for body text and 3:1 for larger text and UI components to meet WCAG AA standards.

Thoughtful application of this color in conjunction with accessible design practices can enhance usability for a wider audience.
