Colors

Our brand colors are used to provide recognition and consistency throughout all brand communications. Our brand colors are divided into two main groups: Primary color palettes (blues & greens); Secondary color palettes (reds, oranges & grays). Each of these palettes has six tint levels, numbered from 1 (lightest) to 6 (darkest).

Primary color palettes

The Aize Blue and Green palettes should be used most often to emphasises Aize as the green/blue brand. When creating layouts for print or digital, the primary palettes should be kept separate, as much as possible, rather than mixing between palettes. For example, if Green 1 is used for a background it’s best to use a dark green for any type rather than switching to a blue.

Secondary color palettes

In addition to our primary palettes a set of secondary color palettes is used to expand our color landscape and add depth. The Aize Red and Orange palettes should be used sparingly for illustrations, infographics, icons, etc. When applying secondary colours in distinct areas, ensure that tints of the same core colours are kept together and not mixed with other colours.

All of the primary and secondary colors can be mixed freely within illustrations or patterns as long as there is a strong bias towards the blue & green colors, which helps to maintain the sense that Aize is the blue/green brand.

Color hierarchy

The guide here does not indicate exact amounts of how much color to use but is a guide to indicate the hierarchy and balance needed between the colors themselves to achive the correct overall expression of the Aize brand.

It is important to be familiar with these proportions when creating any type of brand communication for Aize in order to maintain brand consistency.

The three groups shown apply to each of the colour palettes. Green is shown here as an example.

Color hierarchy

Group 1 includes the darkest and lightest tints of color, plus white. These are used most often in each of the main color palettes.

Group 2 includes tints 2 & 5. These are used to add depth to layouts.

Group 3 includes tints 3 & 4. These are used sparingly to add pops of stronger color to layouts.
