⚠ PLEASE NOTE: We've released v. 1.0.0-alpha. This means that our Design System is not stable at the moment. 🙌
Hi! We are the team behind the website and the design sistem of the Unione Sportiva Asiago. In this repository you will find all the documentation that we've used to style and build our new website, together with the Design System. 🙌
For more information about the licence and the documents we've taken ideas from, please refer to Licensing and attributions
section.
If you hate GitHub, hold tight! In the next months we'll publish these guidelines on our website! 🤞
When we started design our new website, we asked ourselves: "Is it possible to build a product that embodies our soul, while being modern and simple to use?" That's why we started from scratch and decided to create our own Design System on which the website would be based.
Having a Design System is a key part of building a website, since it:
- Helps maintaining consistency throughout the entire project
- Gives us guidelines to follow when thinking of new digital interfaces
- Makes us uniquely recognizable out there in the world
- We started by analizing the story of our club and we searched for the right colour palette, the one that could help us communicate efficenty our goals and our story. So we opened our wardrobe and looked at our beautiful jacket, made with these beautiful colours:
#0679CC
#FAA916
#A61C3C
- Then we've added some complementary colours that goes along well with the other ones, red and yellow particularly:
#222E50
#007991
#C5FFFD
- Finally, we closed the PC and went for a ski with the whole team. It's then that we found out that we wanted to convey the uniqueness of every athlete and the sense of family that you can find when you're part of the Team USA. So we've added some shapes - some with sharp angles and some with round corners - to express these last particulars.
The result? A unique and distinctive Design System that mix together our centenary story and today's reality in the team. Something that wants to express the way you will feel if you come ski with us.
⚠️ We're applying the last finishes to our Design System. Come check back in a few days!
These guidelines were built by taking some inspiration from other great projects. We want to be as transparent as possible by mentioning the work made by others:
- The Carbon Design System by IBM, the open source Design System adopted by the technological company IBM across their websites and services.
- The Country's Design System developed by Designers Italia, an ambitious project from AGiD and the DTD, the Italian Department for Digital Transition, which aim is to develop better interfaces for digital public services of the future.
- Sirio, @INPS-it's Design System which is the basis for the new INPS website. INPS, Istituto Nazionale di Previdenza Sociale, is the government's entity that distributes all the government's bonuses and a range of different services, and it's website is one of the most visited in Italy.
