I’ve done a bit of an overhaul on the site today and settled on a bit of branding. I wasn’t happy with the previous colour scheme or logo, so I spent the morning brainstorming colours / fonts / iconography based on what I want this site to represent.

Gone are the dark, moody colours, and the “rubber ducky” inspired scheme has arrived.

For those of you who are curious (and why wouldn’t you be?), here are the colours and fonts that I have used in this design so far:

Colours:

• Black #161616
• White #FAF9F7
• Grey #8A8A8A
• Yellow (quack) #F2C400
• Red #C83A2A
• Slate Blue #4A5D73

Fonts:

• Inter – Body Text
• Merriweather – Headings
• IBM Plex Sans – UI / Navigation elements

I’m guessing some of you talented designers are pulling your hair out at my choices, and that’s fair. Leave suggestions for improvement in the comments.

There’s still more work to do 😊
