Brand colours

​

If your image naturally includes elements close to our brand colours, that’s a plus. If you have a choice between similar motifs, prefer the one that fits our palette (for example: choose a turquoise boat over an orange one). No need to force it, this is just a guideline to help when selecting a subject.
