Accessible colour combinations

In: web resources

28 Sep 2009

Different people have different needs when it comes to the colour combinations that they can read comfortably (or at all) on screen. But what colour combinations are actually preferred by people with dyslexia or vision impairment?

If you had to pick, say, five combinations of text and background colour that you could let people choose from by means of a style switcher, what would they be, and why? Keep in mind that these are colour combinations intended to improve accessibility.

It would also be great with some links to research or data on this.

Thanks for any input – comments are open.
