This week we introduced an updated visual identity for the Eclipse Foundation, including a refreshed look and feel across eclipse.org. As Europe’s largest open source foundation, we support a global community working on software-defined vehicles, open source AI, cybersecurity and regulatory compliance, dataspaces, open hardware, cloud native technologies, package registries, and much more.
With more than four hundred projects and over twenty industry collaborations, millions of developers rely on technologies and initiatives under our stewardship. Our visual identity helps people understand who we are, what we do, and how they can get involved.
This refresh is about more than colours and fonts. It’s about making sure our design system tells the same story as our mission to:
- Ensure user freedoms
- Empower developers
- Enable collaboration
You’ll notice more photography and human-centred imagery across the site, and you might even recognise a few familiar faces. At the centre of everything we do are the people who power our community. We want all Eclipse Foundation spaces to feel welcoming, professional, rewarding, and yes, even fun. Our community continues to grow worldwide, with increasing engagement across the global south and in other regions where open source ecosystems are expanding rapidly. Wherever you are in the world, you should feel welcome to show up as you are, join others who share your interests, and build something meaningful together.
The updated design system also introduces refined typography with a clearer hierarchy, a modern colour palette, and consistent layouts across our website and communication channels. These improvements build on the brand guidelines we introduced earlier this year. Those guidelines explain how our visual identity supports simplicity, trust, and a more welcoming experience for our global community, and this update puts those principles into practice.
This new visual identity reflects where the Eclipse Foundation is today and how we continue to grow with the people who help shape our work. It marks an important step in our evolution as an open source foundation devoted to community, collaboration, and sustainability. It gives us a look that matches the energy and ambition of the industries, organisations, and individuals who support and engage with us.
We are proud of this refresh, and we hope you like it as much as we do.
