colour bar segment weights

This scale indicates the relative weight and importance that should be placed on colours and frequency of use.

The Corporate Colour Palette reflects an academic, rich, and dynamic Lakehead. Blaze and Cobalt are the primary corporate colours, a nod to our history that is reinforced in every communication.

Crimson is our secondary palette member, also found in Lakehead's past (see Lakehead Coat-of-Arms) and should be used as an accent colour only. Laurel, Amethyst, and Thunderwolf are the tertiary colours in the palette which add depth and range, and like Crimson, should be used as accent colours.

All colours have deep and passionate intensity but may also be used as percentages.
