The identity

Machine precision, in service of faded, human, theatrical storytelling.

Three tensions, none optional — the geometric mark (the machine / the AI), the literary italic serif (the human / the auteur), and the faded curtain palette (the theatre). The diamond is an aperture; the square inside it, one human canvas. A machine framing a story.

01 — The mark

The aperture

On light · primary
On dark · inverse
Mono · stamp / emboss

Clear space ≥ 0.5× mark height. Minimum size 20px. Shape unchanged from the official mark.

02 — Lockups

Mark + wordmark

03 — The only change

Recolour: amber → terracotta

Shape and letterforms are untouched. Only the wordmark colour shifts — the original bright amber is dusted down to the site's terracotta, so the logo recedes into the faded-curtain world instead of shouting off the page.

04 — Colour roles

One brand colour, the rest are roles

The palette (Ulla-derived faded watercolour) is unchanged. The discipline is new: terracotta is the single brand accent; everything else demotes to a functional role so no screen carries four colours fighting.
