Branding advice and color decisions

The content strategy working group of The Good Docs Project is about to embark on a refresh of our website.

We are a group of technical writers and developers, and would love input from a designer.

We want to choose a new theme, and it would be good to make some pre-emptive creative decisions to make our lives easier when applying that theme. For example, we’ll need to answer questions like “Which blue? Now we need another color - what contrasts well with this blue? Is it accessible?” etc.

Our project has a main product: templates. It also has subsidiary products, one of which, the Chronologue, has its own branding (this is already established). We’ve also got a blog.

We need a primary and secondary color scheme to gives us enough flexibility to tie our products in to the one family. We’ll probably use a Hugo theme, and a theme color generator but it would be nice to get input from a designer.

Come along to a meeting and have a chat. Or join us in Slack.

We’re all volunteers on this project, so we can’t pay you.
