Icon, banner and description
- A square server icon that reads at small sizes: a logo or a face, not small text.
- A server banner (Discord needs boost level 2 for it).
- A one-line server description that says what the server is for.
Emoji channel names
Channel names like 👋・welcome or 📜・rules are easy to scan. Pick one separator (・, ┃ or ») and one emoji per channel, and use them everywhere. Keep the name itself plain so it's still easy to type and search.
Tidy categories
Use a few short category names in capitals (START HERE, CHAT, GAMES, VOICE), and put the channels people need first at the top.
Role colours with a purpose
Give colours to the roles people should notice, like staff, and leave the rest plain. Someone's name takes the colour of their highest coloured role, so the order matters.

Channel topics and header images
A one-line topic on each channel tells people what it's for. A header image at the top of key channels (welcome, rules, announcements) gives them a polished feel.
Make a Discord server look good with Foreman
In the Builder's Look tab you set the server icon and banner, an emoji and separator for channel names, and header images for channels; Foreman applies them when you push. Restyling channels that already exist is off unless you turn it on.
