Bisque — 11-step color scale

Bisque (#ffe4c4) sits at 500, untouched. Every other step is Bisque composited over white or black at a decreasing opacity, so the whole ramp stays in one hue family instead of drifting toward another color at the ends.

Each step is the base composited over white or black at the opacity shown.#ffe4c4

For text that needs to pass AA on white, 800, 900, 950 clear the 4.5:1 line. On a dark surface, 50, 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, 600, 700 do.

Semantic colors from Bisque

Success, warning, error and the rest are derived from Bisque itself, then checked so they stay distinguishable from the base — and from each other — under the three types of color blindness. The distance below is CIEDE2000 after each simulation.

Derived from #ffe4c4

Suggested	Protanopia	Deuteranopia	Tritanopia
success#8fba9f	12.6	16.6	35.9
warning#c8a185	16.4	15.4	16.8
error#c9a0ba	27.5	25.0	15.2
discovery#9eadd5	32.4	35.0	34.5
info#80b9c1	23.4	29.2	39.0
neutral#afa79d	17.4	18.3	16.6

CIEDE2000 distance from the base under each simulation. The lowest of the three decides, and a dot marks the ones that land under 11.

The success suggestion is the closest call: it clears the threshold under Protanopia, but only reaches ΔE₀₀ 12.6, so it sits just above the 11 line rather than comfortably past it.
