Recommended Design Standards

This website offers a design toolkit for centres and other Vipassana entities to update their own websites and other publications. While there is no obligation to use the designs, we hope that that the existing multiple formats can be replaced when time permits.

Colors

{{ color.color }}
{{ color.text }}
Always use a color contrast checker to ensure good accessibility.

Fonts

We mainly use the Noto Sans project, a modern font available for every language of the world. When possible (mostly for latin languages), we use Footlight for the headings.

Non-English web pages

If the language of the web page is not English, the trademark logo should be displayed in English in the page header on all pages. This is because the trademark is registered only in English in most countries and using a translation would weaken the protection offered by the trademark.

It is recommended that the translation of the trademark (and the tagline if required) is displayed in a simple plain font, either as a heading above the introductory paragraph of text, or as part of the introductory paragraph text. See the example for German.

Include the logo directly in your website

using this code for normal size:
<img src="https://design-standards.dhamma.org/dist/logos/logo-en.png" alt="Vipassana Meditation as Taught by S.N. Goenka"/>

or using this code for large size:
<img src="https://design-standards.dhamma.org/dist/logos/logo-en-large.png" alt="Vipassana Meditation as Taught by S.N. Goenka"/>

Developers tip: assets are delivered with high speed by CloudFlare proxied CDN.
