Details

To accompany the primary Nottingham blue (see nottingham_1) and the supporting palette (see nottingham_2) a small neutral palette can be used. This is made up of a light/warm grey and "white".

The neutral colours of nottingham_3 can be used on all designs where appropriate, do not count towards the maximum two supporting colours per design and are permitted to make up over half of the designed asset, as these would be best used for text (white only) or backgrounds.

The neutral color Portland stone is defined as CMYK: 3, 3, 8, 0, RGB: R250, G246, B239, or HEX: "#FAF6EF".

Portland stone has a 40 to create more accessible designs.

More information on accessibility and permissible combinations can be found in the ‘digital backgrounds’ section of UoN's Colour guidelines.

nottingham_2 uses the HEX color definitions.
