Making something for us

Everything you need to produce work that looks like it came from us: the files, the colors, the type, and the small number of rules that actually matter. If something here is not clear or you need a format that is not in the pack, email me rather than working around it.

Six rules, and the rest is detail

  1. 01Never put the mark next to the wordmark.The three bars and the lockup are alternatives, not a pair. Pick one. Everything else on this page assumes you have.
  2. 02A coral field always takes dark ink.White on coral measures 2.8:1 and washes out on a phone in daylight. Use black, or the dark green-black.
  3. 03The logo coral is always #FF6A4D.On light and dark alike. There is a darker red in the palette for body text on light grounds — it must never touch the logo.
  4. 04Clear space is the height of the coral GTM block.On all four sides. It scales with the logo, so there is one number and it is never wrong.
  5. 05Do not go below 121px wide, or 16px for the mark.That is measured, not taste — it is where the letters stop resolving. If the space is smaller, use the mark instead of shrinking the lockup.
  6. 06Do not stretch, skew, rotate, recolor or rebuild anything.Scale uniformly. The geometry is specific, and a rebuilt version will be visibly off. If you need something the pack does not have, ask.

Files

Start with the first two

wordmark-primary for dark backgrounds and wordmark-light for light ones cover almost every case. Each tile below sits on the ground that file is built for.

One color · the letters are real holes

These are cut out rather than filled, so whatever sits behind them shows through. Use them when you only get one ink.

No EPS or AI in the pack.

The SVGs open in Illustrator and After Effects directly, and the letters are already outlined so you do not need the font. If your workflow genuinely needs a different format, ask and I will make it rather than have you convert one.

Spacing

One measurement, and it scales

GTMOperators

The dashed line is the logo’s own bounding box. The clear space around it is the height of the coral block — keep everything, including page edges, outside it.

Color

Coral never means damage

Coral is emphasis, decisions, and things we built. Crimson is the only color that means something is broken. They are different hues on purpose, so both can appear in one frame without confusing anyone.

NameHexRGBUse
Ground#0711107, 17, 16The near-black. Our default ground
Coral#FF6A4D255, 106, 77The brand color
Bone#E4EFE9228, 239, 233Our light ink. Not pure white

Crimson#FF2E5F255, 46, 95Broken
Slate#6E9BC4110, 155, 196Links, secondary accents

These are screen values. No CMYK or Pantone has been specified — ask before converting anything for print.

Type

Three faces, all in the pack

All three ship in fonts/ as static single-weight TrueType, which is what Adobe apps and most video tools want. They are SIL Open Font License, and the license text sits beside them — it has to travel with the fonts if you pass them on.

Anton

Display. Always uppercase, always 0 letter-spacing, never below 20px. Do not add tracking as it gets smaller — it is drawn to be set solid.

Google Fonts
Chivo

Body. 400 for running text, 600 for emphasis. This paragraph is Chivo.

Google Fonts
JetBrains Mono

Labels, timecodes, stats, captions. Uppercase with +0.14em letter-spacing.

Google Fonts

The logo is set tighter than the headlines.

The lockup uses -0.022em. That value belongs to the logo only and should never be carried into a headline — the display scale is flat at 0.

For video and motion

Left to right, or it grows, or it does not happen

Signal enters on the left and value leaves on the right. The direction is the entire idea, so movement that goes the other way reads as wrong even to someone who cannot say why.

The logo animates exactly one way.

The three bars rise in sequence, left to right. That is the only permitted logo animation. No spinning, no bouncing, no letter-by-letter reveal on the wordmark, no flares, no particles, no unfolding.

And if a still frame from the animation does not make the point on its own, the motion is decorating a weak shot. Decks get exported to PDF and animations get screenshotted.

The gain field — usable as a transition, wipe or lower-third rule

If you are writing copy

Specific beats clever

Open with the claim, then enumerate. Fragments are fine. Show the failure before the fix. Name real tools and real numbers — this audience runs these systems, and vagueness reads as inexperience.

Ask before you work around something

A format you need, a layout the rules do not cover, a case where two of them conflict. Any of those is a two-minute email and a much bigger problem if it gets guessed at instead.
