One face for the apps on the box: paper and graphite surfaces, one yellow taken from the lid, and the Red Hat type family. Everything on this page is built from tokens/tokens.css and css/mezbox.css. DESIGN.md holds the rules.

Logo

The Lifted Lid with the wordmark MezBOX: always one word, "Mez" in 800 weight, "BOX" in 500. App lockups add "/ App name".

Paper and graphite neutrals with one signal yellow. Warnings are orange so they never look like brand. Switch the theme in the top right to see the dark set.
