Logo

The YotoShelf logo is a pixel-art shelf scene. Two formats: a 1:1 mark and a 3:1 hero banner.

Hero Banner (3:1)

Three staggered shelves connected by glowing orange network lines with cards in transit. Represents the multi-estate value prop: home, classroom, family.

Usage

The logo is a dark-background-baked pixel-art scene. On the site it appears inside a rounded plate — a border-radius: var(--radius-xl) container with the dark background colour #1C1714 — which anchors it cleanly on the paper-cream page surface. Keep the plate treatment consistent wherever the mark appears in a light-mode context.

Do

  • Place inside a rounded dark plate on light backgrounds
  • Use the SVG versions for web and print
  • Use the 48px PNG for sidebar icons
  • Use the JPG for GitLab project avatars
  • Resize with nearest-neighbor to keep pixels crisp

Don't

  • Place directly on a light background without the dark plate
  • Stretch or distort the aspect ratio
  • Resize with bilinear/bicubic filtering
  • Add extra effects, outer shadows, or borders on top of the plate
