Colors

These colors and tones are the new brand guidelines that are being adopted in part for ADA purposes

COLORS / INTRO


The CENTURY 21® digital branding guideline colors supersede the master brand guidelines for all digital content, including websites, email, and PDF files distributed online. Colors that are only used in digital marketing begin with “digital” in their name. All text and UI elements must pass the WCAG 2.1 AA contrast specifications.

Please be advised that the ADA legal landscape is constantly evolving. You are required to ensure your business is in full compliance and we encourage you to consult with your attorney.
