05The Mark

The monogram is a C, S and M sharing one hexagonal lattice.

Redrawn from the artwork as exact geometry rather than an upscale, so it holds at any size.

Construction

Every edge in the mark runs on a triangular grid. Three of the four directions are the ones you would expect from a hexagon: vertical, and the two 30° diagonals that give the outer C its faces. The fourth appears only at the tail of the S, where the cut follows the lattice vector at arctan(√3 / 2).

The same four vectors are the background grid on the home page, so the ground a visitor stands on is drawn from the mark itself.

Usage

Four rules.

  • Clear spaceNever less than the width of one stroke
  • PolarityInk on paper, or paper on ink — never mid-tone
  • RotationNone. The lattice is the alignment
  • DistortionProportional scaling only
