Logo

The Octen mark: a circular 'O' icon paired with the Octen wordmark, set in Fraunces. Assets are sourced from the brand deck and live at /public/brand — see docs/design-system/00-philosophy.md for provenance.

Primary lockup

Icon + wordmark. The Logo component swaps the wordmark automatically between the light-theme (black) and dark-theme (white) sources — no manual variant switching needed in product code.

<Logo size="xl" />variant="auto" (the default) picks the right wordmark for the surrounding theme automatically.

The standalone 'O' icon, for favicons, avatars, and compact placements.

Signal (default)

Clear space & minimum size

Octen

Minimum clear space equals the height of the icon mark on every side. Below 16px icon height, drop the wordmark and use the icon mark alone.

Usage

Do
  • Use the white wordmark/icon on dark or photographic backgrounds.
  • Keep at least one icon-width of clear space around the mark.
  • Use the signal-green icon only on black/near-black surfaces — it fails contrast on light backgrounds.
  • Scale the lockup proportionally (icon and wordmark move together).
Don't
  • Don't recolor the wordmark to anything other than black or white.
  • Don't stretch, skew, or rotate the mark.
  • Don't add drop shadows, outlines, or gradients to the logo itself.
  • Don't place the brand-green icon directly on a light background — use black or the darker accent-strong green context instead.
