Color

Color plays a big part in bringing a brand together. Here is the palette of the base scheme, right next to each other. If you can't feel a brand impression or at least get a hint at a mood, it might be worthwhile to revisit the scheme.

  • #007599
  • #E32416
  • #00838a
  • #6100a7

Often the brand palette is used more subtly, via the light versions of the brand shades. These washed-out or pastel tones should also work together to give you a hint of the brand:

  • #ccf4ff
  • #ffcfcc
  • #ccfcff

Here are all the brand colors, broken out in logical groupings.
