Style guide

The style guide helps provide a quick snap shot to organize the branding for use of fonts, typography sizes,
colors, HEX codes and elements. Following the style guide keeps the design consistent.

Color palette

This website branding uses a split-complimentary purple, orange and green color scheme.  The colors match the existing purple in the company’s logo. The purple and orange reflects the colors in a sunset representing creativity, imagination, excitement and stimulation.  The green accent color creates a grounding effect to represent education which this non-for-profit focuses on.

Photography

The photography include pops of the green and orange to bring out the accent colors and further enhance the split-complimentary color effect in this branding. At Supernova Sites, we have access to paid for and free stock photography plans. Most of the imagery here is used from www.iwaria.com, free African photography. We can also work with you to find the right photographer if you choose to do in-house photography.

ICONS

Icons are outlines in hexagonal shapes.

Elements

This brand uses diagonal-cut buttons, polygon icon backgrounds, water color splashes and torn cloth as the background images. The elements help promote an edgy, tribal and energetic brand.

WEBPAGE DESIGNS

To build this website, we started out with the Moodboard which is a collection of inspirations colors, images and fonts. From there, we created a Style Guide to organize our fonts, elements and colors. Then the Wireframes were developed. We built the header/banner of the home page to mimic a Z-pattern using UX Design to bring the viewers attention to the Donate Now button. Next, we designed the pages using Adobe Illustrator. Finally, we built it on WordPress using Elementor and adding CSS code.
