Color Palette

Following is the color palette for the website. The first color (far left) on the first and second lines is the primary color. The third line is the secondary color – the first two colors are from the company’s brand (logo).

The fourth color is black to white … many times; we need blacks and grays for shadows and other elements; this line shows the various tints that would be used from black to white.

The fifth line of colors is the three colors (Accent A, B, & C) rounding out the analogous color scheme (based on the primary color).

Following the primary colors are the progression from light (tints) and dark (shades). The secondary color has its respective light progression (tints). These are shown because when creating various elements or pages, there may need to be a shade or tint used to provide depth and life in the design.

Typically, only shades of the primary are possibly used. Shades of the other colors tend to be irrelevant as those colors are not the primary focus. However, it is more likely tints of other colors may be used; that is why they are shown.

While not all of these colors may be used, they are here for reference (and for easy use, if needed/desired during the creative process).
