# Site appearance
Each microsite can have a distinct visual appearance.
The Microsite admin can use the Site design user interface (UI) to set up the site's branding: including colours, fonts and logos to be set as well as header and footer content.
For more complex layouts, the site design can be quickly changed by creating a child theme of localgov_microsites_base
