[libreoffice-design] Branding for LibreOffice 6.0
Hello everyone, the next major update of LibreOffice is planned for Q1/2018. That makes it necessary to start the design work now. With the experience from the last process I want to try something different this time: to ask the Open Source Design group for a professional visual design (https://github.com/opensourcedesign). We should request at least two variants in order to involve our community (despite the fact that we blog with a reference to OSD and everybody can contribute early), where users choose their preferred design later. And I would add a tough timeline to the request so that we can run a plan B if anything fails. We should also improve ourself on how to start a request. Designers usually work well with a clear goal and a few constraints, such as metaphors, ideas around the product etc. And that's what I want to ask for in this mail. My rough proposal: Task: * New motif (Question: Or do we want to keep the triangles rather than moving forward to hexagons?) + Current design + https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Visual_Elements * Applying the motif to new splash screen / banner (661x169px) + Current design + https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Marketing/Branding + Previous ideas + https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Design/Playground/Splash_screen + https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Marketing/Branding/Banner_Proposals * Applying the motif to flyers, stickers etc. + Current flyers + https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Gallery_Flyers * (Can we technically introduce a new progress bar and do we want to? There is a proposal https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/User:Chin_Zee_Yuen) * (What else?) Restriction * Follow guidelines for colors and branding + https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Marketing/Branding * Create at least two ideas that can be presented to the community * Finish the job until end of July 2017 * Use open data format or at least SVG (What else?) Metaphors (i.e. For what stands LibreOffice?) * Transparency, Sustainability, Freedom * Community * MUFFIN * Green * Six, hexagon, ... Any comments are welcome, of course. I understand no reply as silent acceptance and would start the request by end of this week.
