Official Colours

The university’s official logo is made up of a group of 6 colours—these are not to be adjusted in the logo files. They form the foundation of a broader brand colour palette and the basis for a more robust visual vocabulary. StFX Blue, Marigold, and White are the primary colours—the balance used for accent and texture.

Secondary Colours

While the logo colours provide the base of our brand expression through consistent use, they do not exclude use of other complementary colours. These are Sky Blue, Skylight, Pumpkin, and Greenleaf.

For a complete list of colour codes, please refer to page 13 in the Visual Identity Guide.
