Brand kit

-

Mark, logo lockups, avatars, banners, social cards, palette, voice. One page - so client builds, add-on chrome, screenshots and third-party press stay consistent.

-
- -
- -
-

The name

-

In English the product is Hermes — after the Greek god of messengers, - travellers, and crossings. In modern Greek the same name is Ermis - (Ἑρμῆς). Written form is always Hermes outside Greek contexts.

-

The keyboard shortcut inside Theseus is Ctrl+Shift+E - — E for Ermis, off the collision path with Chrome's own Ctrl+Shift+M.

-
- -
-

The mark

-

A tilted winged envelope — a letter mid-flight. Vector, scales - cleanly from favicon to hero. Ships as one SVG with the sky-blue fill plus - dark inner cutouts for the flap V-fold.

Usage

DoDon't
Keep the envelope tilted, wing on the back-left.Mirror the mark or tilt it the opposite direction.
Use the dark-fill variant against sky-blue surfaces.Place the sky-blue mark on a sky-blue background.
Pair with the wordmark "Hermes" when context is unclear.Apply to a product with a different protocol or trust model.
Scale the vector mark freely — it's crisp at any size.Rasterise and re-upscale; use the SVG as the source of truth.

Palette

-

Hermes rides on a sky-blue primary — fast, airborne, legible - on both dark and light. The deep navy background is the natural pairing; - the dim tones are for muted type.
