= About Us =
The Design Team is the design group of the Fedora project. Our interests are not only in creating graphics for use by the Fedora community, but also in advocating the use of the creative tools that are a part of Fedora.
The Fedora Design Team is Fedora's in-house design agency. We provide artwork, user experience, usability, and general design services to the Fedora project.


'''Team Leader'''
Our current team goals:

}}


== Subteams ==
* '''Template and Automate''' - Generate templates, standards, and automation where possible for more efficient and consistent artwork production.
* '''Increased focus on UX/usability''' - Increase the amount of UX and usability work we provide to the Fedora project through both more efficient usage of current designer time and also better recruitment of UX/usability team members and better documentation of UX/usability tasks and processes.
* '''FLOSS Creative Tool Education & Outreach''' - Continue to use the very same free and open source creative tools available in Fedora to design for Fedora, and increase and improve knowledge sharing with the general FLOSS community.
* '''Clear Priorities''' - Strive to be more selective about our focus as a team and set clear priorities so the things that are most important to Fedora are done in a timely and organized manner.

We have bi-weekly meetings to review tickets, chat, catch up on work, and get team feedback and direction.  Come stop by and meet everyone if you're interested in getting started with our team!
