Design Trends and Tools

Many corporate sites are designed with a fairly standard layout of a banner, navigation across the top, content in the middle, and footer links for privacy, terms of use, contact, etc. Often, there is little color, the background is white and gradients are used for contrast. Usually, there is an application or CMS behind them.

These sites tend to use images more as content than design, and choosing the colors for the site from the logo can create a very nice site.

This tool allows you to enter hex color codes and then delivers a variety of color schemes, including the CSS to use them:

Color Scheme Designer 3

It is also a great example of a nicely designed site.

Please share other tools you find helpful here.

Great tool, but does it work with every CMS? I'm working with either Typo3 or Pirobase and I don't see how to include the new rage of colours into what I alreday have within the CMS. Can anyone give advice? Thanks!
