You may have noticed something different in the OpenProject Community: The application header now features our new primary blue (#0F41B5).

This update gives you an early look at the refreshed default colors coming with OpenProject 18.0 on December 2, 2026.

Alongside the header, the new blue is also used for links and active navigation elements, creating a more consistent look throughout the application.

With OpenProject 18.0, these changes will become part of the default design across OpenProject installations, including trial instances and the Community edition. Organizations using custom branding through the Enterprise add-on will of course be able to continue using their own colors.
