    Accessibility Tip: Don’t Rely on Color Alone

    Accessibility Tip of the Week: Don’t rely on color alone

    When designing charts, forms, or anything visual, color can be helpful—but it shouldn’t be the only way you convey information.

    Not everyone sees color the same way. Relying on red for “stop” or green for “go” leaves some people out.

    Here’s how to make your design more accessible:

    Add text labels or icons Use patterns or textures Test with a colorblind simulator

    Design for clarity. Don’t rely on color alone.
