Mission statement for Fedora Workstation Visual Identity
We want to use interface elements in our desktop to create a distinguishable visual identity for Fedora Workstation. These elements should signal that Fedora Workstation is more than just a sum of its parts and over time develop instant recognition of Fedora Workstation.
The text above is the currently agreed wording for the overall mission for visual identity in Fedora Workstation. The goal is to build a complete identity plan to apply to Fedora Workstation 26 and onwards.
Tasks needed to create Fedora Workstation visual identity plan
- Define overall mission statement (Done)
- Create a set of goals based on that mission statement
- Review current elements in Fedora Workstation 25 in light of new mission and goals. Create a plan for identity elements based on mission and goals, see which of the current efforts are still wanted, and what new if any elements or options we want added.
- Ensure steps are implemented in time for Fedora Workstation
2627
Paul Frields and Matthias Clasen are tasked with putting together a team of designers to look at the mission and goals defined by Working Group and report back with proposal for how those requirements should/could be done. This team will basically be handling step 3 as listed above.
Goals of Fedora Workstation Visual Identity
This is a proposal, it has not yet been discussed and ratified by working group
- When looking at the desktop of someone using Fedora Workstation, there should be elements to quickly differentiate it from other operating systems.
- Fedora Workstation visual identity should tie in with overall Fedora branding efforts
- Branding does not have to be explicit, working group is fine with elements that provide distinguishability, but which will need to be popularized before they provide identification as Fedora.
Visual Elements
This section lists some of the visual elements that are (and could be) changed to help make Fedora more distingishable.
Top Bar
- This is unchanged from upstream GNOME. No Fedora customization.
Unlock Screen
- This is unchanged from upstream GNOME. No Fedora customization.
Wallpaper
- a new Fedora default wallpaper with every release
- the wallpapers tend to have a Fedora visual style. Blue, etc.
- wallpaper is used by default on the desktop and the screen shield.
- The default background has an overlayed Fedora logo in the bottom right corner. This is implemented as a gnome-shell extension in order to avoid embedding the logo directly into the image
Bootup screen
- an animated fedora logo is used on the plymouth boot screen
Login Screen
- Fedora Logo at the bottom of the user list
