Adding a brand to your Webflow website is an important step in establishing a cohesive and professional online presence. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of adding a brand to your Webflow project.
Step 1: Accessing the Brand Settings
To begin, log in to your Webflow account and open the desired project. Once you are in the Designer interface, click on the website name located at the top left corner of the screen. A dropdown menu will appear; select “Project Settings.”
Step 2: Navigating to the Brand Tab
In the Project Settings panel, look for the “Brand” tab on the left-hand side. Click on it to access all the branding options for your website.
Step 3: Uploading Your Logo
Now that you are in the Brand settings tab, scroll down until you find the “Logo” section. Here, you have two options: either upload an image file of your logo or use a text-based logo.
If you choose to upload an image file, click on “Choose Image” under the “Image” option. Select your logo file from your computer, and Webflow will automatically upload and display it on your website.
If you prefer using a text-based logo instead, simply enter your desired text into the “Text” field under the “Text Logo” option. You can further customize it by selecting a font style and adjusting its size and color.
Step 4: Customizing Colors
In addition to adding a logo, you can also customize your website’s color scheme within the Brand settings. Scroll down until you find the “Colors” section.
To change your primary color, click on “Change Color” under Primary Color. A color picker will appear that allows you to select a new color from a spectrum or input specific HEX values for precise customization.
You can also define secondary colors by repeating the same process under the Secondary Color section. These colors can be used for various elements on your website, such as buttons or links.
Step 5: Typography Settings
Webflow provides an extensive range of typography options to ensure your website’s text appears exactly as you envision it. Scroll down to find the “Typography” section within the Brand settings.
Here, you can select a font for your headings and body text. Webflow offers a wide variety of Google Fonts to choose from, allowing you to find the perfect fit for your brand’s aesthetic.
Step 6: Preview and Publish
Once you have customized your logo, colors, and typography settings, it’s time to preview how your changes will appear on your website. To do this, click on the “Preview” button located at the top right corner of the Designer interface.
The preview mode will open in a new tab, allowing you to navigate through your website and see how all the branding elements come together. Take this opportunity to ensure that everything looks cohesive and aligned with your brand identity.
If you are satisfied with the changes, simply close the preview tab and return to the Designer interface. To make these changes live on your published website, click on “Publish” located at the top right corner of the screen.
Congratulations! You have successfully added a brand to your Webflow project. By customizing elements such as logos, colors, and typography according to your brand’s identity, you have taken an important step towards creating a visually engaging and cohesive online presence.
