Torres Strait Islander Flag Colors Hex, RGB & CMYK Codes

Designed by Bernard Namok, the Torres Strait Islander flag has four colors in its palette – green, blue, white and black. The hexadecimal, RGB and CMYK codes are in the table. The Pantone® values for the green and blue have been specified as 3288 C or 342 C and 301 C or 280 C, respectively.

The flag design has green stripes at the top and bottom edges followed by thinner black stripes that sandwich a broad blue strip. Right in the center is placed a Dhari (traditional headdress) with a five-pointed star (both in white). Green represents the land, black the people, blue the sea and white is for peace. The flag stands for the identity and unity for Torres Strait Islanders and was adopted by the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Commission (ATSIC) in 1992. It was recognised by the Australian Government as an official flag along with the Australian Aboriginal Flag on 14 July 1995.
