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 Mark
Protocol mark
ZENON
Full wordmark
Scales to any context

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
The circle is flat-filled with a soft box-shadow glow. This creates a "lit indicator" effect — active and emissive without faux-3D shading. The glow is the brand.

Native to Interfaces

The green dot is already the universal status indicator. Zenon verification slots into existing UI paradigms without friction.

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:

TENDS TO WORK
Green circle as the primary recognition element
Dark backgrounds for maximum green contrast
Minimal wordmark, generous spacing
Flat fill + glow for "lit indicator" feeling
Letting the circle speak for itself at small sizes
TENDS NOT TO
Adding gradients or 3D shading to the circle
Busy backgrounds that compete with the glow
Pairing with heavy ornamental typefaces
Using the circle as decoration vs. a status signal
Adding outlines, borders, or containers around the circle
For AI & Agents

A machine-readable brand reference is available as a standalone markdown file. Include it in LLM context windows, agent tool descriptions, or design system documentation so AI tools can generate on-brand Zenon assets.
