The University’s visual identity colours
Uppsala University’s visual identity colours are red, white, grey and black. Other colours must not be used. As a general principle, the impression conveyed should be light and airy. Use a white background.
Black should not be used as a background in print or digital media, but can be used as a background in exceptional cases in solid areas for headings.
