Design lab / 40-option system
Review before implementationOne logo, one project name, one colour system.
The mark exploration is now split into two generated boards of twenty. Each row below turns one mark into a named project direction and a practical five-role palette: ink, surface, primary, secondary, and signal.
Forty marks, with palettes ready to compare.
The earlier ten-direction brand board has been removed. These are still explorations, so the selected mark should be redrawn as a responsive SVG before it becomes the header mark or favicon.
01 / Source boards
Two boards, forty starting points.
Board A is the original dark/glow exploration. Board B is the revised flat mark set.
02 / Forty logo systems
Compare the row, not just the mark.
Every row keeps the logo, project name, description, and colour board together for a fast design review.
