Org Chart Tokens

Org-chart tokens

A colour palette extension for Woodfine corporate hierarchy charts. One IBM Carbon colour family adds to the existing Woodfine org-chart palette using the tinted treatment: Carbon -70 border, Carbon -20 background fill.

Tinted vs heavy treatment

The existing Woodfine palette uses the heavy treatment — dark border, very pale background (e.g. token-blue-solid, token-green). The IBM Carbon extension uses the tinted treatment — mid-tone border, saturated tinted background. The visual contrast between the two treatments is legible at a glance and survives greyscale print.
