## Clearspace

Maintain at least the height of the chevron `>` glyph as clearspace on every
side of the wordmark. Don't crowd the mark with other elements.

## Minimum size

- Wordmark: 96 px wide on screen, 0.75 in / 19 mm in print.
- Icon: 24 px on screen, 0.25 in / 6 mm in print.

Below those sizes the chevron and counters lose legibility — use the icon
alone instead of trying to shrink the wordmark further.

## Color

- Primary black: `#282828` (wordmark)
- True black: `#000000` (icon dark gradient)
- Off-white: `#F5F5F5` (icon light gradient stop)
- Surface white: `#FFFFFF`

The wordmark is monochrome by design. For brand-aligned accents in
adjacent UI use the Voidly product palette in `BRAND.md`.

## Do

- Use the SVG whenever possible — it scales without artifacts.
- Pick the variant that contrasts cleanly with the background.
- Keep the mark monochrome unless the surrounding design system demands
  otherwise.

## Don't

- Don't recolor the wordmark except to the inverse (white on dark).
- Don't add drop shadows, glows, outlines, or strokes.
- Don't rotate, skew, or distort the proportions.
- Don't reproduce the wordmark from a screenshot — always use the SVG.
- Don't lock the wordmark up with another logo without leaving full
  clearspace between them.

## Attribution

When using the Voidly mark in articles or presentations, no attribution
is required. If you'd like to credit the source, "logo courtesy of
Voidly" or a link to `https://voidly.ai` is appreciated.
