IU_1 provides the two primary colors of Indiana University Bloomington (IU), USA.

Usage

IU_1

Format

An object of class character of length 2.

Source

Color definitions are based on IU's Brand and Uniform Guidelines (2018).

Value

A named vector of colors (HEX/HTML codes of type character).

Details

The 2 primary colors are "cream" (defined as HEX "#EDEBEB") and "crimson" (defined as HEX "#990000").

Cream and crimson are the key components of the IU brand and the IU Athletics look. Crimson is the visual anchor and should be dominant in all marketing materials. For marketing purposes, “cream” is treated as white.

Note that the members of the IU community are collectively known as Hoosiers and the logo of Indiana University is the IU trident.

IU_1 uses the HEX color definitions.
