About the Palette

The Warner Bros. Discovery color palette reflects the broad spectrum of content we create and deliver, from all points of view, nature to fantasy to hard-hitting journalism.

Vibrant, bold and expressive, the vivid primary color palette (inner circle) and more muted and neutral secondary palette (outer circle) open opportunities to take audiences out of their worlds, and immerse them in ours.

Vivid Palette

Use RGB and Hex value for all digital applications.

For print, we recommend using RGB in cases where you can’t provide the Pantone values. We have found providing RGB and flagging to the printer so that they may best match the digital color with the way their specially calibrated machine yields the truest result.

Usage

To achieve maximum impact and balance, our broad color spectrum works best when colors are combined in ways shown here. When using imagery within the framing device, the color of the device element should be within the same color family as the imagery. When only solid colors are used, pair our vivid palette with our neutral palette to create balance.

Always consider your audience and choose color and color pairings that are culturally appropriate.

We primarily use white, black and dark blue for type in our system. Ensure the type color has a sufficient amount of contrast with the background on which it appears, whether that be a photo, video or solid color. Type in other colors may be used for emphasis, e.g., CTAs, buttons, navigation, etc. See our accessibility chart for type and background color combinations that are ADA compliant.

Secondary Triads

Incorrect Usage

The examples on this page demonstrate incorrect ways of using our colors.

Don’t use similar color combinations that lack contrast.

Don’t tint our color palettes or use colors outside of our color wheel.

Don’t combine all vivid color palette colors. In most cases, always use at least one neutral.

Don’t use color typography. Our typography should only be white, black or dark blue.

Don’t execute in gray scale.

Don’t outline our frame devices. They are intended to hold imagery and color.


Accessibility

Accessibility is important to us.

We’ve tested our color palette according to Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Standards for Accessible Design to ensure our colors are accessible to all.

This chart is a guide to color combinations that have enough contrast to meet ADA AA compliance level requirements.

Our type colors are primarily black, white and dark blue. Font color names with 18+ denotes that copy must be over 18pt in size in order to be compliant. If the font color is not shown, it is not compliant and should not be used.
