The marks, and where each one goes

Everything you need to put LocalStacked on a page: the logomark in the inks it is meant to sit in, the colours and the jobs they each do, and the type the site is set in.

The mark

Three plates, stacked

The stack in the name, drawn literally: each plate sits on the next, and one sweep runs from amber at the top to burnt orange at the bottom. One-colour versions cover print, embroidery and anything under 24 pixels.

The lockup

Mark and name, set together

The name sets in caps in the lockup. That is a typographic treatment, not the spelling — written out, it is LocalStacked, one word.

Side by side

The default: headers, documents, email signatures.

On light and print

The lockup files set the name as live text in a serif (Georgia on most machines), so on a machine without it the name falls back to another serif. For print or signage, open the file in a design tool and convert the text to outlines first.

App icon & favicon

The mark on a tile

The mark fills 78% of a rounded square. Below 24 pixels the gradient cannot be seen, so the 16-pixel favicon uses the flat amber mark.

Usage

Clear space and minimum size

  • Keep one plate-height (a quarter of the mark) clear on every side.
  • Smallest size for the sweep: 20px on screen, 6mm in print. Below that the gradient disappears — use a one-colour mark, down to 12px or 4mm.

On this website the top plate is a lighter orange (#EA580C), because amber fades on the ivory pages. The files below still carry the original amber sweep; updated files will replace them.

Downloads

Every file, in SVG and PNG

SVG stays sharp at any size — use it for websites and print. PNG is for tools that do not take SVG: social profiles, CRMs, documents.

Colour

Paper, ink, and one orange

The site sits on warm ivory with near-black ink. Burnt orange is the only accent, and it marks one thing: the free evaluation.

Neutrals

  • #FAF9F5--background

    Ivory. The page ground: warm paper, never pure white.

  • #F0EEE6--secondary

    The band: a slightly darker paper behind rows of cards. Sections separate with thin rules, not heavy fills.

  • #E3DACC--card

    Oat. Cards on the band, and the forms.

  • #141413--foreground

    Ink. Headings, text, and every button that is not the free evaluation.

    17.50:1 on ivory and 13.31:1 on oat.

  • #5E5D59--muted-foreground

    Secondary text: summaries, notes, labels.

    6.26:1 on ivory and 4.76:1 on oat.

Accent

  • #C2410C--primary

    Burnt orange, the one accent. It fills the free-evaluation button and nothing else.

    5.18:1 holding a white label, and 4.92:1 on ivory.

  • #EA580C--mark-top

    The top plate of the logo's sweep on this website, a lighter orange in place of amber, which fades on ivory. Never used for text.

    3.38:1 on ivory, above the 3:1 a graphic needs.

Typography

Three faces, each with one job

A grotesque for headlines and buttons, a serif for reading, and a mono for the small labels. All three are free Google Fonts, served from this site.

Local growth, built and measured.

Instrument Sans--font-sans

Headlines, buttons, navigation and the wordmark on this site

Loaded from Google Fonts through next/font, so it is self-hosted at build time and there is no third-party request at runtime.

Source Serif 4--font-serif

Paragraphs, articles, and the big headline over the horizon picture

Loaded the same way, from Google Fonts through next/font.
