Visual Identity and Brand Guidelines

[anajsana]

The first website iteration will display the following temporary elements:

• Logo: The DevRel GH Green Leaf logo (temporary, non-official)
• Fonts: The standard Linux Foundation website fonts, Open Sans Regular and Roboto Slab Light
• Colors: Alternating between the green from the logo (or variations of it) and the LF navy blue

This issue has been create for interested community individuals in contributing to the visual identity to join in defining a final logo, font, and color scheme.

Action Items

• [ ] Agree on Foundation's visual identity
• [ ] Develop a brand guideline to be included on the website

Some brainstorming topics from today's kick-off call:

• Start with the concept brand first, and then look into the structure. Link
• Document all on GitHub and the public website discord channel.
• Start with a small group who is familiarized with design processes, so set the ground, and later communicate actively with the aim to engage into a larger group (will likely convert into a working group in the future). Define how to get more community involved and the process to contribute and share feedback.
• At what time do we want to actively seek for wider community feedback?

Action Items:

• Think on what's missing. We need to consider the tone of the content, not just teh visual identity. This would help inform. Take this slides, and see who in the community has a word to say.
• Tab can take that piece
• Ana and Stacey to evaluate some of the LF brand guidelines https://www.linuxfoundation.org/brand-guidelines
• Work async and catch up on a call in 2 weeks to evaluate progress
