Tints
Tints of the primary and secondary colors may be used to extend the color palette and for layering purposes.
Each color has a range of tints that may be used. The range was chosen based on several criteria: whether the tints hold true to the original color, whether the color is too light for use in print, and its overall aesthetic. Hope Orange (PMS 166) is the only color that may not be used as a tint.
Only permitted tints are shown below. Clicking any swatch will copy the HEX code value of that color to your clipboard.
