The Douglas Archives seeks to preserve, protect and make widely known the enormous contribution that members of the Clan Douglas have made, and are still making, in politics, medicine, literature, music, sport, exploration and other forms of scientific endeavour, military campaigns and many other fields.


==================== Carousel

Overview

This style guide is based largely on the principles of atomic design. The key idea of this methodology is that small, independent - atomic - parts, can be combined into larger molecular structures. Molecular structures can be combined into larger organisms, which can then serve as the foundation for templates and full pages.

Our guidelines have space for flexibility, and are continuously revised and expanded to suit changing product needs.



About BindTuning

At BindtTuning, our passion for technology is rooted in our desire to explore, to navigate a better way to get work done. What first started as a themes gallery has evolved into a “self-serve” subscription model for creating beautiful and useful sites for SharePoint and Office 365.

The logo

The signature is a combination of the symbol itself nad our company name - they have a fixed relationship that should never be changed in any way. The corporate logo is presented through the use of color as well as shape and form. The two corporate colors are Cerulean Blue and Dark Gunmetal. It is a fresh and appealing blend of colors chosen for their strong combination - modern - classic - timeless.

The Logo Symbol

Consists of a powerful element evoking the culture of design services and a blue square backround. The main logo is the blue logo used on white background. For darker backrounds you will find alternatives following the manual.

Typography

Typography plays an important role in communicating an overall tone and quality. Careful use of typography reinforces our personality and ensures clarity and harmony in all BindTuning communications.

This is Roboto

Roboto is great for headlines as in-product use and long form typography. We chose to keep content simple and consistent across systems.

Smaller text on paragraph

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Phasellus euismod, lectus tincidunt volutpat fermentum, orci erat mattis ipsum, ut blandit sapien nunc sed eros. Curabitur convallis faucibus turpis.

Line Height

In the context of the corporation branding as in products display the text is spaced intentionally to maintain distinction between different types and blocks of content. As a result, we take a pragmatic approach to spacing and line height by resetting all paddings to 0 and having a fixed standart , and allowing the line-height property for all text to inherit a globally defined ratio of 1.7 of the text size. This allows designers and developers to easily opt-in to specific text spacing by leveraging our CSS Text and Spacing Utilities. We do provide a longform text CSS utility, which will result in our recommended vertical text rhythm for optimizing a balance between readability and space efficiency.

Products

At BindTuning, we have guidelines for the products we follow when we create content. We apply the guidelines to text that appears in our products, the website, internal software and non-screen content (branding materials, etc).

Presenting products in order

The BindTuning products, although indivual, are forjed for the intranet as a whole, providing this way a fully user centric and visually apealing experience. As individual, each product is fully customizable to match any brand. As a whole they tell a story and should be presented in order as coming first the themes, second the web parts and as third the clutch.

1. Theme as a product it provides the flexibily for content to respond to any screensize.

2. Web Parts can turn SharePoint data into beautiful experiences.

3. Clutch brings these two together (themes and web parts), inside well designed templates to match any industry and provides automatic installation - without writing a single line of code.

Visual Differentiation

BindTuning use colors in conjunction with iconography to visually differentiate between products. Consistent use of these colors will contribute to the cohesive and harmonious look of the identity across all relevant media. To each product was attributed a corporate color providing way for an easy identifiable communication.

Themes

Easy indentifiable as Cerulean the themes as a product assumes the primary BindTuning color as it was the corporate first idea and concept in wich the brand was born - a theme to fit all CMS platforms.

Web Parts

This product assumes the Carrot as it symbolizes a user centric approach to visualize SharePoint data in a usable, beautiful way. As SharePoint branding relies on blue we assume this vibrante orange variation in communication as a way to conceptualize how the complete set of web parts breathes life into the old boring intranet.

Example

Buttons

Most pages only have one true primary action, a couple of less important secondary actions, and a few seldom used tertiary actions. As same as backgrounds there's a class to every color.


Primary Buttons

Primary actions should be obvious. Solid, high contrast background colors work great here. Write the class "btn-" and follow with the color name

Button Blue Button Moonstone Button Red Button Carrot Button Smoke Button Dark

Example

Secondary Buttons

Secondary actions should be clear but not prominent. Outline styles or lower contrast background colors are great options

Button Blue Line Success Danger Warning Light Dark

Example

Dropdown Buttons

Use drop-down menus to let users select an action or options from a set of choices. Typically, drop-down menus are used when you have 5-15 options. If the options exceed the limit of 5 elements a verticall scroll will be added to prevent overflow of content and other related issues.
