Color Palette

Primary Color Palette

Our primary color palette consists of two colors plus black and white and should be used on all design and marketing materials, both internally and externally.

Note: PMS colors are purposefully different from their corresponding HEX values for quality purposes. Use the PMS/CMYK values for printed materials and use the RGB/HEX values for any digital projects.

Web Accessibility

When the colors from the primary, secondary or tertiary palettes are used on the web as background or foreground (text) colors, sufficient contrast between the foreground and background colors must be present. This may require additional lightening or darkening of your selected color. To check for sufficient contrast, use the WebAIM Color Contrast Checker.
