The flag itself is 1:2 in its proportions and composed of three fesses. From the top they are white, green (Pantone Green 256 U) and blue (Pantone Blue 2975 U), in a proportion of 2:1:2. In the left of the white field is a stylized representation of a sprig of the black spruce a common tree in Labrador. It has two year-growths, the first growth shorter than the second growth, and both have three branches (including the centre branch), each of approximately equal length.

Famous quotes containing the word design:
“Nowadays the host does not admit you to his hearth, but has got the mason to build one for yourself somewhere in his alley, and hospitality is the art of keeping you at the greatest distance. There is as much secrecy about the cooking as if he had a design to poison you.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“If I knew for a certainty that a man was coming to my house with the conscious design of doing me good, I should run for my life ... for fear that I should get some of his good done to me,—some of its virus mingled with my blood.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“I always consider the settlement of America with reverence and wonder, as the opening of a grand scene and design in providence, for the illumination of the ignorant and the emancipation of the slavish part of mankind all over the earth.”
—John Adams (1735–1826)
