Hello!
Does KiCAD have a Style Guide/Branding Guide/Design Guide? Example from Spotify
If not, what are the primary and secondary RGB (or any format) color codes, and where would I small the “Ki” logo/icon (the small logo excluding the Cad, preferably in SVG)?
I just did a quick search and found:
Is there a file for just the Ki without the Cad? Also, are the colors on that logo the brand colors?
For a file without the “CAD”, just use any drawing program that can modify SVG files.
After a bit of nosing around on gitlab I found:
Because it’s from the KiCad website itself, it’s probably as close as you get to “official”.
Color of the blue square is the same as in the other logo ( #314CB0) I have not compared the other colors. For the rest, Open Source projects generally do not have much of a budget for marketing, and it is not something I know much about either.
There is a mail address for PR stuff on the KiCad website:
Thank you! I wasn’t able to find the logos in the source code, so your help is appreciated! I’m going to just assume the logo colors are KiCAD colors, works for me!
I am very familiar with styles guides for various organizations. I can make one for KiCad if that is something that could be beneficial.
When I was making the logos for GitHub - Ki365/Ki365: Connecting KiCad projects with useful tools, on the web! there were many steps involved for which a style guide would have helped.
