Section 01

Logo system

The onshelf. wordmark is the primary brand identifier. The trailing period is non-negotiable — it's a declarative full stop. We built a shelf. We put brands on it. Period.

The shelf-line is a literal shelf — flat, level, lime. Never tilt it, never gradient it, never let it float far from the wordmark.

At 16×16px, the period renders as a 3×3px filled lime square. At 32×32px+, it renders as the character. Favicon background is always white (#FFFFFF) — never transparent.

1.7 Logo on photography

Contrast first. Always.

onshelf.
Dark / busy → reversed
onshelf.
Light / high-key → standard

If the background is mid-tone or busy, apply a semi-transparent overlay (black 40% or white 50%) behind the wordmark area before placing. The wordmark never fights the image for attention.
