Color palette
To most people, red says “YouTube.” It’s our color, and we like to use it alongside neutrals like black, gray, and white.
Logo palette
Our logos and icons use the following color palette.
Icon red
- Hex #FF0033
Logo black
- Hex #282828
White
- Hex #FFFFFF
Reds
Our brand is deeply associated with the color red, but that doesn’t mean we should use it everywhere. A very little bit of red goes a long way, so use it sparingly. Icon red should only be used in our official logos and icons. Never use the icon red as an accent color in collateral. Instead, use the other reds in our brand palette.
Light red
- Hex #FF4E45
Medium red
- Hex #CC0000
Grays
As our only neutral colors, our grays are extremely useful in any design. We use white for the background color, middle grays for UI elements, and black for headline and body text.
