Guidelines.

Keep the system simple so the mark stays recognizable on the site, hoodies, stickers, and event materials.

  • Use espresso logos on cream or other light backgrounds.
  • Use cream logos on espresso or other dark backgrounds.
  • Do not stretch or distort the logo.
  • Preserve consistent spacing between the bean and wordmark.
  • Do not use unapproved colors—especially pure black for the mark.
