The Parabolt mark

Everything you need to show Parabolt: the logo in every format, the colours, the type, and the few rules that keep it looking like itself.

The grid
A three by three grid of squares: precise, built from one module, like an order book.
The missing diagonal
The diagonal from bottom left to top right is left out: a bolt drawn by absence, always rising, like a good trade.
Files

Logo files

SVG for anything on a screen, PNG where a tool only takes pictures. Colour files are for light backgrounds, reversed files for dark ones.

Parabolt horizontal logo, colour

The default. Headers, listings, documents.

Parabolt symbol, small cut

Small cut

Below 24 px the gaps would close up, so they are doubled.

Profile, banner and animations

The Parabolt logo animation

Intro animation

Plays once: each square traces its outline and fills, then the empty diagonal rises and the logo bursts.

The Parabolt logo, looping

Animated avatar

A 3.6 second loop that starts and ends on the logo: the squares erase, then trace their outlines and fill.

Sized to survive a round crop.

Parabolt banner

Banner

1500 by 500, for X, Discord and Whop. The logo is centred, so any crop keeps it.

Colour

Colours

Signal Gold is the brand. On light backgrounds, where gold is too faint, the mark and the accent use Deep Gold instead.

Usage

Using the logo

Do

  • Leave one cell of clear space on every side, about a third of the symbol's width.
  • Keep the symbol 24 px or larger. Smaller than that, use the small cut.
  • Use gold on dark and deep gold on light, or one solid colour when only one colour is possible.

Don't

  • Rotate or mirror it. The gap always rises to the right.
  • Recolour single pieces, move them, or fill the gap.
  • Add shadows, outlines or gradients.
  • Set "Parabolt" in another typeface next to the mark.
