01 · Logo system

Winch Labs

mark · primary blue
mark · reversed
mark · on light

The mark doubles as the W of the wordmark. Clear space: keep at least the height of the mark's left stroke free on all sides. Never stretch, recolor outside the palette, outline, or place on low-contrast backgrounds.

Garboard is mark-only — no text lockup. The shield carries the identity at golden amber #E8A63C; product UI sets the name in plain type beside it when needed. The mark keeps its amber on every surface — including the blue-themed app — and amber is used for nothing else.

Brand architecture

One theme, everywhere. The Winch Labs theme — Winch Blue, dark canvas, system sans + mono evidence — is the single theme across every surface: winchlabs.io, decks, slides, stationery, and the Garboard app itself. Golden amber #E8A63C belongs to exactly one thing: the Garboard logo mark. It never colors buttons, links, accents or headings. The endorsement line "Garboard · by Winch Labs" binds product to company; blue is how both of them speak.

One accent: Winch Blue, on every surface including the product. Amber exists only inside the Garboard mark. Green and red are reserved for gate results — never decoration.

Type system

Headings — system sans, bold, tight
ui-sans-serif / Inter / Helvetica · weight 700 · letter-spacing −0.03em
Body — the same family at 400–500, muted color, generous line height. Sentences, not fragments. Every product claim carries evidence.
weight 400–500 · line-height 1.6
code & identifiers — ui-monospace · file:line · $24/user/mo · terraform
every path, price, SHA, rule id and eyebrow label is mono

The wordmark's italic letterforms live only in the logo artwork — never typeset "Winch Labs" in italic text to imitate it.

Print files are supplied at production resolution with the artwork on transparent backgrounds where the garment provides the color. Dark garments take the white print; light garments take the blue print. One logo per item — never mix Winch and Garboard marks on merch.
