#EA0DFD

sRGB: 234 / 13 / 253

Infinite horizons flourish beyond boundaries
Silent memories illuminate forgotten empires
Celestial symphonies shatter the chains of fate

#EA0DFD belongs to the magenta family. Its hex code tells a screen to mix 234 red, 13 green and 253 blue on a scale of 0 to 255. On the HSL wheel, hue is a position around a circle: 295.2° lands in the magenta region. Its 98.4% saturation makes it strong in color at this lightness. HSL lightness is 52.2% on a scale from black (0%) to white (100%). Of black and white lettering, black has the clearer light-to-dark separation on this background (5.97:1), which helps the shapes of letters stand out.

Text contrast

Contrast tells you how clearly lettering separates from #EA0DFD in light and dark. The ratio compares relative luminance, a measure of light weighted for human vision. Identical colors give 1:1 and black against white gives 21:1. A ratio of 2.99:1 falls just below the 3:1 AA minimum for large text. Body text needs at least 4.5:1 because its finer strokes are harder to distinguish.

Black text: 5.97:1

Normal text: AA
Large text: AAA

White text: 3.51:1

Normal text: Fail
Large text: AA

AA and AAA are WCAG accessibility levels. AAA sets a higher bar: 7:1 for normal text and 4.5:1 for large text. Large text begins at 18 pt regular or 14 pt bold. Ratings use the unrounded ratio.

Palettes & scales

Harmonies rotate the hue. Scales mix the starting color with white, black or middle gray in 20% steps in encoded sRGB.

Complementary

#20FD0D sits half a turn (180°) from #EA0DFD on the HSL wheel. Keeping saturation and lightness steady while crossing to the opposite hue gives you a contrasting accent. Check text contrast separately before using the pair for lettering.

#EA0DFD #20FD0D

Analogous

#720DFD and #FD0D98 sit 30° to either side of #EA0DFD. The three hues are neighbors on the wheel, so you can change the color of a border or highlight while keeping it close to the original.

#720DFD #EA0DFD #FD0D98

Triadic

#EA0DFD, #FDEA0D and #0DFDEA are spaced 120° apart, forming a triangle on the wheel. Try one for the main color and the other two for accents.

#EA0DFD #FDEA0D #0DFDEA

Split complementary

Start at #EA0DFD and look across the wheel. #98FD0D and #0DFD72 sit 30° to either side of its exact opposite, giving you two different accent choices.

#EA0DFD #98FD0D #0DFD72

Square

Starting with #EA0DFD, each quarter turn (90°) takes you to the next hue: #FD720D, #20FD0D, then #0D98FD. Across the square, #EA0DFD pairs with #20FD0D, and #FD720D with #0D98FD.

#EA0DFD #FD720D #20FD0D #0D98FD

Tetradic

#EA0DFD and #20FD0D are opposites, as are #FD0D20 and #0DFDEA. Together they form a rectangle on the wheel, with alternating gaps of 60° and 120°.

Color vision previews

Compare how #EA0DFD appears in each simulation. When two chart lines or status indicators become hard to tell apart, a label, shape or line pattern gives readers another way to distinguish them. Individual perception varies.
