Brandbook
Forged in fire.
The Alovio brand, live. From the Land of Fire — a flame mark, coal surfaces, ember light.
The written source of truth is BRAND.md; this page mirrors it in the brand's own
skin.
Logo
The flame mark.
Mark · gradient flame-1 → flame-2
Horizontal lockup · wordmark always lowercase, Grotesk 500
Home is dark. Place the logo on coal; keep the gradient intact; never flatten, invert, recolour or Title-Case the wordmark. Minimum: mark 16px, lockup 88px wide.
Colour
Coal base, flame accent.
--coal #0c0a09 Base surface — page background --ash #1c1917 Raised panels / cards --line #292524 Borders & hairlines --warm-white #fafaf9 Primary text on coal --smoke #a8a29e Muted text, labels, captions --flame-1 #f97316 Primary accent — orange --flame-2 #fbbf24 Gradient partner — amber --ember #ea580c Selection, focus, glows linear-gradient(100deg, var(--flame-1), var(--flame-2)) The one signature gradient. Three roles only: the hero accent word, the solid CTA, and link/element hover. Flame is a spice — never a flat orange wall.
