FOUNDATION
A comprehensive set of colors built to support theming, data visualization, and complex UI components.
The UI color palette for the Goldman Sachs Design System is defined by four overarching goals:
The GS Design System uses an edited set of colors from the color system to achieve consistency and convey hierarchy in often extremely complex applications. It is designed to be a complementary set of colors that work in concert with the primary brand color palette, which is geared towards marketing, editorial and print needs.
Note that the GS Design System uses many more colors than the ones shown on these primary palettes, but the most extensively used colors are documented here. For a comprehensive list of how all colors are used within the system refer to the color tokens.
Action blue, or Blue 60, is the most striking color used for UI Design in the Goldman Sachs Design System. It is reserved for important action items that need to stand out: buttons, text links and other critical functional use cases.
