The hex color #1C34A4, also known as Torea Bay, presents moderate accessibility challenges. Its relatively dark hue means it requires careful consideration when used as a background or foreground color for text. To ensure readability, it's crucial to pair it with a light color that provides sufficient contrast, ideally achieving a contrast ratio of at least 4.5:1 for normal text and 3:1 for large text as defined by WCAG guidelines. White (#FFFFFF) and very light shades of yellow or beige are good options. Avoid pairing #1C34A4 with colors of similar darkness, as this will result in poor legibility and a negative user experience. Testing color combinations with accessibility tools can provide assurance of compliance with accessibility standards. Consideration should also be given to users with visual impairments, who may require higher contrast ratios.
