The color #2E5A4E, also known as Stromboli, presents some accessibility challenges, particularly for users with visual impairments. Its relatively low luminance value of 0.13 makes it difficult to read when used as text on a white background. According to WCAG guidelines, the contrast ratio between text and background should be at least 4.5:1 for normal text and 3:1 for large text. Stromboli falls short of these recommendations when paired with white. To improve accessibility, consider using a lighter tint of Stromboli for backgrounds or pairing it with a significantly lighter color for text. Black text on a Stromboli background is not recommended. Also, always provide alternative cues beyond color to convey important information, ensuring that all users can perceive and understand the content, regardless of their color vision capabilities. It's crucial to test color combinations using accessibility tools to ensure compliance with accessibility standards.
