Burlywood — 11-step color scale

Burlywood (#deb887) sits at 500, untouched. Every other step is Burlywood 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.#deb887

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

Semantic colors from Burlywood

Success, warning, error and the rest are derived from Burlywood 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 #deb887

Suggested	Protanopia	Deuteranopia	Tritanopia
success#7fbea0	8.6	14.2	42.3
warning#d79792	13.6	9.9	8.2
error#d09bbe	31.1	27.5	7.3
discovery#90afe0	37.6	40.2	46.3
info#70bcc9	28.0	33.4	44.1
neutral#afa79d	13.9	14.9	14.8

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 error suggestion starts out colliding with Burlywood under Tritanopia — ΔE₀₀ 7.3, below the 11 threshold — so the engine shifts its hue within the error family until the pair pulls apart again.
