taste-color
Color is the most emotional thing in the interface and the most abused by agents. The fix is structure: a tiny palette, used with discipline.
1. PALETTE ARCHITECTURE (60-30-10)
A complete interface palette has exactly:
- 60% neutrals — the surfaces and text. Warm or cool, but one family. 2–4 surfaces (bg, panel, raised) + 3 text steps (primary/secondary/muted).
- 30% structure — borders, hairlines, dividers: a tinted neutral, not a color.
- 10% accent — ONE saturated color with a job: the primary CTA, links, active states, one data series. If a second accent exists, it has a distinct job (e.g., success green for status) and appears at <2% coverage.
More than three "meaningful" colors per viewport = the page has no message. The accent stops pointing at anything when it appears everywhere.
2. BUILDING RAMPS (OKLCH, Not RGB)
- Build all ramps in OKLCH (perceptually even lightness). Never interpolate between hex values blindly.
- Neutrals: 9–11 steps (50–950), chroma near 0. Accent: 9–11 steps, hue locked, chroma rising from low at 50 to full at 500–600, falling again at 900.
- The two most used values on a page: the 500–600 step of the accent (buttons) and the 50–100 step of the neutral (backgrounds).
- Convert to OKLCH in code where the stack allows; otherwise ship hex but compute from OKLCH.
3. CONTRAST (WCAG 2.2 — Exact Numbers)
| Element | Minimum ratio |
|---|---|
| Body text (normal) | 4.5:1 |
| Large text (≥24px, or ≥18.66px bold) | 3:1 |
| UI components (borders, icons, input edges) | 3:1 against adjacent |
| Focus indicator | 3:1 against adjacent, 2px minimum |
- Never eyeball it: compute with a contrast function (WCAG relative luminance formula) or a tool before shipping.
- A "premium" desaturated look is NOT an excuse for low contrast: desaturate the background, not the text.
- Text on accent buttons: white text needs accent ≤ ~4.6:1-luminance; check it. Dark text on light accent is often the right call (
#FFD100yellow + ink text = correct; white on yellow = failure). - Placeholder text ≤ 0.5 opacity is decorative: placeholder labels must not be the only label (floating labels, visible labels).
4. SEMANTIC MAPPING (Names Carry Jobs)
--color-surface,--color-surface-raised,--color-text,--color-text-muted,--color-border,--color-accent,--color-success,--color-danger,--color-warning— with 3–4 steps of each where needed (e.g.,--color-danger-bg,--color-danger-border,--color-danger-text).- Meaning must be in the name:
--color-danger-textnot--color-red-700. - Danger/success/warning exist for status ONLY — never as decoration.
- Dark mode = remap semantics (
--color-surfaceflips), never a second palette of raw colors sprinkled into components.
5. COLOR-BLIND SAFETY (Default-Safe Pairs)
- Never encode information in red vs green alone. Add shape, position, pattern, or labels:
✓ / ✕, ↑/↓, solid/dashed. - Blue-violet is the safest hue (tritanopia & deuteranopia friendlier); orange is the strongest safe accent against neutrals.
- For data viz: use colorblind-safe categorical sets (e.g., Okabe-Ito) rather than rainbow defaults.
6. CHECKLIST (Fail the Page If…)
- [ ] Any two adjacent text/background pair under 4.5:1 for normal text.
- [ ] More than one accent color carrying meaning per viewport.
- [ ] A gradient where a flat color would do.
- [ ] Red and green as the only signal of success/failure.
- [ ] Any raw hex in a component instead of a token.
- [ ] White text on a yellow or pale accent.
- [ ] A "dark theme" that's actually just the same colors on a dark background (contrast must be recomputed).
One accent, used twice per viewport, is a signal. The same accent everywhere is noise.
