Responsible for refreshing the colors used on the website version of the project tracking software Trello. I wanted this design to be an iteration of the current design not a total rework.

I set about to design a color system for the platform that would better reflect the usage of the platform as a project management tool. While using colors to inspire emotions of creativity furthering the progress of the projects tracked with this platform.

Main Goals:

  • Refresh the color system while adhering to the standards already set by the previous design .
  • Maintain the usage of cool temperature colors throughout the design to make the overall design less stressful for its users.
  • Use neutral colors slightly off the extremes to create a more distinct look to the platform while still maintaining proper contrast ratios.

Update:

Slight changes were made to the design with the lightness brought down on the purple used in the UI colors to stand out less and have a less overwhelming effect on the end user.

I love the way you are presenting the color system and explain the option you have made.

Given the purple as a main color, would you consider the fact that user will stand for a while to read the cards and might overweight the color system. I found the saturation of the purple a little too much.


Try to rethink the purple! is way too much
