Logo

Use the supplied masters. Keep the spelling and the lowercase wordmark intact. Every master below is the real file from logo/, as a PNG plus an SVG.

The builder is an illustration, and it only exists as pixels: the largest copy is the 460 px GitHub avatar. Each SVG wraps its PNG so it drops in wherever an SVG is expected; it is not a vector drawing and doesn’t get sharper when scaled. If the original high-resolution artwork turns up, rebuild every master from it with python scripts/build-assets.py.

Keep the builder, its outline and the wordmark’s proportions intact.

Surface Use
Paper, white or a light brand colour The full-colour masters
Night Shift, Blueprint or any dark photo The reversed lockups and symbol, dark (Paper sticker border)

There are no one-colour masters: the builder is a coloured drawing, and flattening it to one colour loses the character. For single-colour print, use the wordmark alone.

Keep the lockup together and measure the visible artwork. H is the builder’s height; scale the master as one object.

Rule Value
Builder to stacked wordmark height 1.25×
Gap between builder and wordmark H ÷ 6
Clear space on every side H ÷ 4

These are recommended starting sizes. Always check the final output.

Where Minimum
Builder height, on screen 48 px
Primary lockup width, on screen 180 px
In print 12 mm builder / 40 mm lockup. Proof at actual size before production.
App icon Builder ≈ 62% of the tile height, on a Paper field
Largest 280 px builder height on screen, the artwork’s native size. Don’t upscale it.

Below 48 px the zzz and the face disappear; the favicons in icons/ are already tuned for those sizes.

The builder is a fixed piece of artwork. Treat it as one recognizable unit.

  1. Don’t stretch it.
  2. Don’t rotate or mirror it.
  3. Don’t recolour or redraw the builder, the bricks or the zzz.
  4. Don’t lose the outline on a dark background. Use the dark master instead.
  5. Don’t add effects such as shadows, glows or gradients.
  6. Don’t change the type of the wordmark.
