FreeCAD News

Just in time for upcom­ing FreeCAD 1.0, the project got a major logo refresh.

To get there, the design work­ing group orga­nized a pop­u­lar­i­ty con­test. Vol­un­teers sub­mit­ted 46 designs, over 1,500 com­mu­ni­ty mem­bers vot­ed for the TOP‑5, then a team of main­tain­ers vot­ed for the win­ning entry among those five — the one sub­mit­ted by syta.co (FreeCAD forum handle).

We thank every­one involved: the design­ers for sub­mit­ting their art­work, the design work­ing group for orga­niz­ing the con­test, the main­tain­ers team for pick­ing the win­ner, and the entire com­mu­ni­ty for tak­ing action.

The new logo will be find­ing its way to all brand­ing ele­ments soon enough. You should also expect some guide­lines on using the new logo.
