The mark

The mark is a tennis ball reduced to its two seams: a disc with two arcs cut out of it. It stands on its own, without a tile or a frame, and sits on a black surface only where an icon is expected, in a browser tab or on a home screen.

It carries no colour. On a light surface it is black, on a dark one white; the seams are cut-outs and show whatever lies beneath. The publication's one colour is the green of the live dot, and that stays with the live dot.

Colours

The publication is black and white: two surfaces, two inks and a single chromatic colour. The light theme sets ink on paper, the dark one white on black; the green is the light theme's value.

Rules

In short: use the files as they are. Questions and other formats to kontakt@fifthset.app.

  1. 01Use the files unchanged: no recolouring, no distortion, no rotation, no effects.
  2. 02The bare mark needs no frame and no tile. Where a surface is needed, take the circle or the square variant.
  3. 03Clear space: keep at least half the ball's diameter free on every side.
  4. 04Minimum size: 16 pixels across on screen, 4 millimetres in print.
  5. 05The name is written “FifthSet”, one word with a capital S. Not “Fifth Set”, not “FIFTHSET”, not “fifthset” in running text.
  6. 06No use that suggests FifthSet is a partner, an endorser or the author.
