Sunday Supplement Colour Palette

Sunday Supplement draws on the slow pleasure of a weekend paper opened at the kitchen table: cream stock, slightly muted inks and a confident flash of editorial red. Its restrained green and warm brass note create room for arts listings, long reads and cultured product stories without feeling period-bound. This is nostalgic cultural inspiration rather than an official brand reference, and it is not brand endorsed.

Usage guidance

Set background to Library Cream for page fields, cards and generous article margins. Use primary, Columnist Red, for masthead rules, active tabs and limited calls to action. Place secondary, Newsroom Sage, in category chips, metadata and quieter dividers. Reserve accent, Brass Bookmark, for pull-quote marks, saved states and small highlights. Use text, Printer's Ink, for body copy and headings on Library Cream; the recorded contrast check applies to this pairing.
