I reference the Fedora IoT logo a lot here. I was unable to locate high quality SVGs, so I just made some quick vectors as placeholders. </p><p><img loading="lazy" alt="Logos" src="/assets/images/logos-4edd151eab778f723e2d2bdc8aac5671.png" width="482" height="393" class="img_ev3q"></p><p>I bounced off of what Mo was creating for the Fedora Workstation page in order to keep things cohesive. I looked at her mood board when brainstorming. I&#x27;ve included a picture below of my initial ideas:</p><p> <img loading="lazy" alt="Brainstorm" src="/assets/images/fiot-ideas-5071ad5154aecbace051ecb102c908aa.png" width="1288" height="958" class="img_ev3q"></p><p>I wanted to do something with the cubes that are used in the Fedora IoT logo. I compared them to an image on the mood board of an LED keyboard. </p><p><img loading="lazy" alt="Pattern" src="/assets/images/g5629-35f5f2270352f38d3575611ef6db8680.png" width="907" height="789" class="img_ev3q"></p><p>This was what I came up with! So then I placed in the mock-up along with a placeholder hero image, as well as fading out the gradient toward the end to it can merge into the rest of the page.</p><p><img loading="lazy" alt="Pattern Mockup1" src="/assets/images/gradient-comp-c4e045d22f3ddf10ccf8e632616ebbab.png" width="1200" height="911" class="img_ev3q"></p><p>My second idea was to take the square and make it into a gradient cube and sort of morph it into a suitable background.</p><p><img loading="lazy" src="/assets/images/fiot-ideas-3-32d3ad4cbc8d0de01808b7d2e3a9378c.png" width="2732" height="2048" class="img_ev3q"></p><p>Here is the draft I made up following on from that idea:</p><p><img loading="lazy" alt="Mockup" src="/assets/images/idea2-31b40224de6f074d424c0de2f72819aa.png" width="713" height="520" class="img_ev3q"></p><p>I tried to implement a duplicate of the cube within the pattern but I don&#x27;t think it works too well. </p><p><img loading="lazy" alt="Mockup2" src="/assets/images/idea3-c150655b1db02fc61fb0d93a0a036950.png" width="604" height="453" class="img_ev3q"></p><p><img loading="lazy" alt="Mockup3" src="/assets/images/idea4-058cafb9a322b1782a47979b309f6890.png" width="724" height="525" class="img_ev3q"></p><p>Considering that the IoT edition is aims for edge devices and such, I thought about maybe including a RaspbarryPi as the hero image: </p><p><img loading="lazy" alt="RPi idea" src="/assets/images/hardware-ceddfe041408a261fb6bf8d53a18a992.png" width="387" height="500" class="img_ev3q"></p><p>I currently don&#x27;t have a high quality image of an Raspberry Pi but I was provided with an SVG created by a previous intern. With that as a placeholder, here are my current drafts for the Fedora IoT web page: </p><p><img loading="lazy" alt="Mockup3" src="/assets/images/idea5-c9b988c48c9ec17c1f2b9e5a973df0f2.png" width="1262" height="1126" class="img_ev3q"></p><p><img loading="lazy" alt="Mockup3" src="/assets/images/idea6-84bec1bb4120584af4d07c2e04b07092.png" width="1200" height="913" class="img_ev3q"></p><p>Obviously these are just drafts for the moment. More work needs to go into refining the details etc but I just wanted to give you an idea of what I have so far! </p><p>For my next steps, I&#x27;m in the process of learning Blender with the goal of possibly creating a 3D rendering of a RaspberryPi. I am also going to refine the background with the gradient cuboid and plan out the rest of the web page. </p><p>If you have any feedback for me on my current drafts please don&#x27;t hesitate to either message me @ ekidney:matrix.org or email me @ <a href="mailto:[email protected]" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">[email protected]</a> :) I am also active on the <!-- -->#<!-- -->design:fedoraproject.org channel.</p></div><footer class="row docusaurus-mt-lg blogPostDetailsFull_u0Nl"><div class="col"><b>Tags:</b><ul class="tags_jXut padding--none margin-left--sm"><li class="tag_QGVx"><a class="tag_zVej tagRegular_sFm0" href="/tags/design">design</a></li><li class="tag_QGVx"><a class="tag_zVej tagRegular_sFm0" href="/tags/fiot">fiot</a></li><li class="tag_QGVx"><a class="tag_zVej tagRegular_sFm0" href="/tags/penpot">penpot</a></li><li class="tag_QGVx"><a class="tag_zVej tagRegular_sFm0" href="/tags/mockups">mockups</a></li><li class="tag_QGVx"><a class="tag_zVej tagRegular_sFm0" href="/tags/2022">2022</a></li></ul></div><div class="col margin-top--sm"><a href="https://github.com/blog/2022-01-20-fiot.md" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" class="theme-edit-this-page"><svg fill="currentColor" height="20" width="20" viewBox="0 0 40 40" class="iconEdit_eYIM" aria-hidden="true"><g><path d="m34.5 11.7l-3 3.1-6.3-6.3 3.1-3q0.5-0.5 1.2-0.5t1.1 0.5l3.9 3.9q0.5 0.4 0.5 1.1t-0.5 1.2z m-29.5 17.1l18.4-18.5 6.3 6.3-18.4 18.4h-6.3v-6.2z"></path></g></svg>Edit this page</a></div></footer></article><nav class="pagination-nav docusaurus-mt-lg" aria-label="Blog post page navigation"><a class="pagination-nav__link pagination-nav__link--prev" href="/Exploring-Blender"><div class="pagination-nav__sublabel">Newer Post</div><div class="pagination-nav__label">Exploring Blender</div></a><a class="pagination-nav__link pagination-nav__link--next" href="/introduction"><div class="pagination-nav__sublabel">Older Post</div><div class="pagination-nav__label">Introduction</div></a></nav></main></div></div></div><footer class="footer footer--dark"><div class="container container-fluid"><div class="row footer__links">
