Shades mark — pick the chevron cut
Direction is locked: chevron mustache with boxy angular lenses, straight edges and mitered corners throughout. Ember Red is locked as the accent. The soft variants are retired; below are the candidate cuts of the locked direction — three lens shapes, four chevron mustaches, every combination. Everything is currentColor SVG, so switch themes to check light, dark, and high-contrast.
Lens shape
Hex
Current default. Faceted hexagon — flat top, angled outer and lower edges.
Chamfer
Wayfarer silhouette with every corner cut flat. Boxy but not a plain rectangle.
Box
Pure rectangle, four right angles. The most literal box read.
Mustache
Ribbon
Current default. Two mitered ribbon wings meeting at center — a double-chevron.
Solid
One-piece inverted-V slab, like a rank chevron. The boldest single shape.
Squared
Chevron angle with square-cut tips — the chevron/box blend in one shape.
Blade
Steeper wings tapering to sharp points that droop past the mouth corners.
All combinations
Hex + Ribbon is what ships today (header, favicon, app icon). Name a combination and it becomes the mark everywhere.
