A single piece of artwork
Place the exported lockup as one object. The three-tier mark, custom letterforms, their scale relationship and the gap between them are fixed. Scale uniformly from a corner; keep the aspect ratio locked.
The approved mark and logotype, always used together. Their geometry stays intact.
Use the supplied mark and lettering together.
Protect the signature from competing elements.
Preserve proportion, geometry and arrangement.
The horizontal mark-and-logotype lockup is the default identifier across communication, digital interfaces and principal building identification.
Place the exported lockup as one object. The three-tier mark, custom letterforms, their scale relationship and the gap between them are fixed. Scale uniformly from a corner; keep the aspect ratio locked.
The user-approved Figma selection, node 528:38, governs the artwork. Earlier explorations are obsolete. No alternate stacked, vertical, condensed or text-only arrangement is introduced by this guide.
LOCKED FIGMA SOURCE ↗Geometry approval does not imply approval of the newly proposed color treatments or production specifications. Dark-background previews show a proposed light treatment.
The mark and wordmark are distinct elements within one approved relationship. This diagram identifies them; it is not a construction recipe.
Three ascending horizontal forms give the signature its architectural cadence. Preserve the tier lengths, slopes, corners and negative spaces exactly.
Solaris is custom artwork. Sheina and DM Sans support the identity; neither can recreate the logotype. Never type the brand name as a substitute logo.
The source asset is 1222 × 138 units: approximately 8.855:1. These are export bounds, not dimensions for redrawing. Preserve all internal spacing.
The supplied separate artworks remain source references. This application system defaults to the combined lockup. A standalone avatar, favicon or new arrangement needs its own approved application artwork; do not crop it out of the signature.
Set H equal to the full height of the approved lockup. Reserve at least 1H of uninterrupted space on every side, measured from the artwork bounds. This is a proposed application rule.
Do not measure from the edges of an exported image that contains padding. In the supplied application SVG, the viewBox is tightly bounded. Keep headlines, partner marks, trim, folds, seams and interface controls outside the exclusion zone.
1H is a floor, not a target for every layout. At principal entrances and on cover pages, allow approximately 2H or more. Never reduce the internal gap to make the logo fit.
These are proposed starting widths for the complete lockup, excluding clear space. They are not certified reproduction limits. Use the larger size whenever the substrate or viewing conditions demand it.
Screen specimens use actual CSS widths at 100% browser zoom. Device pixel density and browser scaling change physical appearance. Exporting at 2× does not make a smaller displayed logo more legible.
| Application | Starting width | Required check |
|---|---|---|
| Screen / horizontal signature | 180 px minimum proposal 240 px preferred | Inspect the A and R breaks, S terminals, counters and tier gaps on the target device. |
| Conventional print | 40 mm minimum proposal | Print at 100% on the actual stock; review fine detail and edge spread. |
| Emboss, deboss, embroidery, cutting | No universal minimum | Process-specific sample; enlarge the complete lockup if detail closes. |
| Building identification | Set by sightline | Full-size elevation and on-site day/night assessment with the fabricator. |
Change the layout, create more space or request an approved compact asset. Do not compress the lettering, remove letters or improvise a new symbol. The below-floor example above illustrates the review boundary, not a permitted small-size version.
The original source colors remain the approved master. The two single-color treatments below are proposed applications, derived from the same vector paths. Background colors never become part of the artwork.
Do not make the mark and lettering different brand colors, apply gradients inside the logo or introduce gold. A satin-silver material is a finish proposal, not a new screen colorway. Do not substitute a process black, CMYK mix, spot ink or foil reference without a production proof.
Choose a background that keeps every contour distinct. Check the entire signature, including the finest gaps; a readable mark alone is not enough.
Do not add outlines, drop shadows, glows or a tight box as a rescue treatment. A dedicated panel is acceptable only when it is an intentional layout element with full clear space. Review both light and dark image areas when imagery changes in a carousel.
Use a deliberate alignment to the page or architectural grid. Do not distribute the signature freely as a decorative motif.
A primary face or view normally needs one signature. On a multi-page document, use it at meaningful entry or closing points; running text can identify Solaris without repeating the logo on every page.
Descriptors, campaign lines and studio attribution are supporting information. They sit outside the logo and do not create a new lockup.
Maria Studio is the identity author, not part of the Solaris signature. Credit the studio in a separate masthead, colophon or footer. For a partner relationship, preserve each brand’s clear space and agree hierarchy before release; do not imply an endorsement.
The examples below keep the source paths intact while showing incorrect application. The prohibited geometry changes are described rather than issuing distorted logo files.
No stretching, skewing, rotating or perspective-warping the master artwork.
No tracing, AI generation, retyping or replacing the custom letters with a font.
No stacking, separating, changing the mark-to-type scale or adjusting internal spacing.
No strokes, shadows, gradients, bevels, textures inside the forms or enclosing badges.
Keep all three tiers and the complete wordmark visible. Do not use partial letters as a device.
If a process cannot retain the details, enlarge the whole logo or choose another process. A modified master requires review.
Use SVG for web interfaces and responsive layouts. Preserve the viewBox and intrinsic ratio. The logo must load as artwork rather than live text.
When SVG is unsupported, export a transparent PNG from the vector at the required output scale. A 240 CSS px placement may use a 480 px-wide image at 2×. Preserve clear space in the layout; label any padded export so its visible artwork width is not confused with the canvas width. JPEG is unsuitable for a transparent logo.
| Process | Artwork instruction | Approve before release |
|---|---|---|
| Offset / digital printing | Vector artwork. Confirm color conversion and output profile with the printer. | 100% size proof, stock color, edge sharpness, open counters and gaps. |
| Screen / pad printing | Single-color separation prepared by the vendor from the approved master. | Ink spread, adhesion, coverage and fine-detail retention. |
| Foil / emboss / deboss | Flat vector silhouette; no simulated bevel or texture in the artwork. | Die limitations, pressure, depth, registration and substrate response. No gold. |
| Embroidery / woven applications | Supply vectors for digitizing. Do not permit automatic simplification. | Physical stitch or weave sample. If fine gaps close, enlarge or use another method. |
| Cut or illuminated signage | Scale the full lockup uniformly on the architect’s elevation. | Fixings, letter returns, minimum sections, shadows, illumination and coastal durability. |
Use the named application assets, retain the untouched source and keep production derivatives traceable. A screenshot or image-generator output is never a logo master.
