First, Find Inspiration with Microsoft’s Look Book

To begin with, designing your SharePoint intranet doesn’t need to be complicated. Microsoft provides helpful resources to kickstart your creativity. For example, the SharePoint Look Book shows modern, user-friendly designs that you can replicate or adapt. You can see exactly how organisations are building their SharePoint sites, and clearly understand what makes each intranet successful.

After you’ve picked a design direction, explore advanced SharePoint functionalities using the SharePoint Design Patterns website. This helpful resource provides step-by-step guidance on how to enhance your intranet effectively.

For example, you might want to add a newsfeed to your homepage. This website clearly explains how to use the News web part to keep your team informed with ease.

Quickly Customise Your Branding

Additionally, SharePoint Online lets you quickly customise your site’s look to match your company’s branding. You can easily apply colours, logos, headers, and footers. Customising your intranet reinforces company culture and improves user experience.

Securely Share and Collaborate Externally

Additionally, SharePoint makes external sharing safe and straightforward. If your teams collaborate frequently with external partners or clients, you can securely control and manage shared content.

Enhance Collaboration with Microsoft Teams Integration

Furthermore, integrating SharePoint sites with Microsoft Teams significantly improves teamwork. You can easily bring SharePoint pages, documents, lists, and news directly into Teams, creating a unified workspace.
