# Brand Colors

NASPA’s color palette has been strategically refreshed. These specific values must be used across all digital and print materials to ensure consistency.

### NASPA Primary Colors

The primary brand colors. These will anchor every layout and design.

NASPA Blue (PMS 293 C)

- HEX: #007960Copy
- RGB: 0, 121, 96Copy

### NASPA Secondary Colors

Use Navy as a supporting anchor and Cyan, Emerald, and Mint as accents. Use Navy text on Emerald, or Emerald details on Navy. On light backgrounds, use Emerald only for decoration that does not carry essential meaning. Primary buttons use Navy with White text and NASPA Blue on hover.
