Philosophy

Green means go.

The green circle is a natural adaptation of existing UI conventions, to represent verification at the protocol layer. No brand education required. Status indicators are infrastructure, not identity.

The design language around the mark is dark, industrial, and monochromatic. Hierarchy comes from surface elevation, border weight, and typography. Colour is signal, not decoration — a hue appears only where it means something.

The Mark

The green circle stands alone as the protocol-level verification indicator. Pair with the ZENON wordmark when project identity context is needed. At small sizes, the circle alone is sufficient — and preferred.

Glow Treatment

Native to Interfaces

The green dot is already the universal status indicator. Zenon verification slots into existing UI paradigms without friction. Only the verified state glows; amber marks waiting — or a figure that rests on an assumption — and red marks failure.

Typography

Three families, three roles. Nothing else.

The Dark System

The identity lives on a dark, slightly blue-violet surface system. Elevation, not colour, conveys hierarchy: six surfaces, a four-step text ramp, and three border weights.

Colour — Signal, Not Decoration

On Light Backgrounds

On light backgrounds, the glow effect softens naturally. The green remains high-contrast and immediately readable in any context.

Guidance (Not Rules)

This is FOSS. There are no brand police. But here's what tends to work:
