CoTech – New branding!

Hello everyone!

As most of you will be aware we have been developing a new brand identity for CoTech.

Tommy from our team has been leading on the design and we have been working with the branding group to develop the identity with a streamlined and compressed process.

We will have x2 banners and stickers at congress on Friday.

Below is a visual showing the overall identity and also a link to brand assets.

Social media assets are in the shared folder

A linkedin page for CoTech if everyone can go and like that page

Look forward to seeing some of you at Congress!

I’ve uploaded the files to the CoTech group folder on the workers.coop Nextcloud and some of the assets to the wiki.

I’ve created Discourse versions of the logos and updated the branding, there might be some issues with dark mode now being the default, flag them below if you find them!

I’m not totally convinced with the way I have done the Discourse logos, but I think it’ll do for now, the guidelines for the assets needed are here.

I set the banners up at the Co-ops Congress CoTech stall last night, looking forward to speaking to lots of co-operators at it today to promote CoTech co-ops!

The branding work is fantastic, and looks really good in-situ! What a wonderful building.

@NatashaSPACE4 and I spent a bit of time pairing on a re-design of the CoTech website too following these guidelines. We also took the opportunity to simplify the HTML/CSS to make it easier to add/change things.
