A mark made to make.
The rooted joinery Y is the heart of the identity. Here are the colors, type, rules, and reusable assets that carry it from a maker's stamp to the website.
The lockups.
Keep the wordmark simple, the dot understated, and the tenon detail clear.
Built from two pieces.
A visible joint, not an outlined illustration. Keep the Y solid and flat; let negative space show the fit.
The details that matter.
Broad top arms retain the rooted Y's shape. A small, widened tenon fits into the lower stem. Curves soften the shoulders; a narrow seam keeps the pieces visually distinct.
Wood, paper, and ink.
Quiet, tactile colors. Charcoal and cream do the heavy lifting; walnut and brass add warmth.
#201d19#f6f1e8#fbf8f1#85502d#c69454#667459#475c62Strong and unhurried.
Classic serif display type with a highly readable sans-serif for everything practical. All from system font stacks.
Made to
last a while.
Warm serifs carry the name, large headlines, and maker's notes.
Make.
Build. Explore.
Sharp, quiet body copy for diagrams, dimensions, metadata, and buttons.
Real texture, lightly used.
Wood grain belongs in materials and subtle rules. The logo itself stays clean and vector-sharp.
Use warm wood in photography or finishing details. Avoid placing the joint over busy textures at very small sizes.
Useful in every format.
Logo geometry is identical across variants, including favicon and stamp. These are the actual production files.
From pixels to sawdust.
The same joinery Y will go onto Project No. 001 when the piece is finished.
