Brand Kit
The partnership package.
Everything you need to place a Clatter mark in the world — on a partner's site, on a conference banner, on a t-shirt, on a slide. Follow the rules below and the system does the rest.
Logo anatomy
Construction
Seven circles on one ring.
Every Clatter mark is built from seven circles of equal diameter, equally spaced around a single ring. The geometry never changes — only the palette walks the ring in a different order to express a different product tone.
The three marks
Sibling logos.
Treat the three marks as siblings, never as variants. One mark per surface, never two at once.
Sunrise
Warmth, momentum, daylight shipping.
Bloom
Playful, energetic, product-led.
Forest
Calm, focused, long-term craft.
Sizing & clear space
Clear space
1× ring on every side.
Reserve at least one ring diameter of empty space around the mark. Nothing — type, edges, other marks — may enter this zone.
Minimum size
32px screen · 12mm print.
Below 32px the seven rings stop reading. Switch to the single-circle monogram instead.
24px40px64px96pxOptical alignment
Align to the ring center.
The mark's optical center is the ring's center — not the bounding box. Align type baselines to the ring, not to the asset frame.
Clatter/UIApproved backgrounds
Quiet canvases only. The mark relies on saturation contrast; busy backgrounds break it.

Tagline
"Design is the plan. Shipping is the proof."
Use the tagline as a closing line in keynote slides, in the README of a partner integration, or as alt text for the hero illustration. Never as a button label.
