Colour Scheme

A brand can express its character on many levels. One of them is the colour world which is created around it. Which colours evoke the right feelings? How intensely are they used? In what combination?

Colour Values Copy link to this element

The defined colour world is divided into two palettes: Primary colours and secondary colours. They each fulfil specific purposes, but sometimes also complement each other in order to draw the eye and guide it.

Powidl

Powidl in a yeast dumpling is a cultural asset, some even claim it is art. And it's all the more believable when you see how young and savour it with enthusiasm. Whether topped with melted butter or served with vanilla sauce is up to one’s individual creativity.

As the poppies gently waft in the sunrise, your mind wanders: pure pleasure. And you remember that layer of sweet poppies sprinkled over the yeast dumpling.

Mushroom

Walking into the forest and looking for mushrooms, this searching and finding may bring you back to yourself. After leaving the forest, you usually feel more grounded: down to earth and sometimes realising that you need to spend more time together.

Areas of application

The Austria Tourism red therefore always stands out clearly and retains its dominance in every constellation. The hierarchy thus always remains clear.
