Complementary faculty colours

There are eight complementary colours for the UVic Edge, one for each faculty within the core brand. These colours, first developed in 2008, have been adjusted to support the core colour palette and reproduce well in print and electronic media. The complementary colours are a way for faculties to distinguish themselves from each other and for the university to have a strong visual organization system, but they're not meant to be "identities" for those faculties or to compete with the core Edge colours, which now have a more prominent and consistent role in communications and marketing materials.

They're used in faculty materials to support and complement the core colours. Design balance between the two is important in order to ensure visual integrity and consistency, and to immediately confirm with audiences that the unit is part of UVic.
