Frequently asked questions
Can I change the logo colors?
No. Use the versions in the kit: each one is designed for a type of background. If you need another, ask for it after reading the logo page.
Which logo version do I use on a photo or a colored background?
The one with the most contrast: white on dark areas and black on light areas. The logo viewer warns you when the contrast is not enough.
How do I write “Nitente”?
Always “Nitente”, with a capital initial. In web addresses and emails it goes in lowercase.
Can I use ® next to the name?
No. The trademark is not registered yet. You can use ™ on the first prominent mention, without repeating it every time.
Which typeface do I use if I do not have Inter?
Install Inter (it is free, OFL license). Meanwhile, the fallback stack is system-ui, Segoe UI, Roboto and sans-serif.
Can I print or stamp the logo on clothing or objects?
For the team's internal use, yes, with the versions in the kit. To sell or give away to third parties, ask for permission first.
How do I ask for an exception or a new file?
Write to hi@nitente.com with a sketch of how you plan to use it.
Where can I see what changed?
In the changelog on the governance page.
Can I take the manual as a PDF?
Yes. The “PDF” button in the top bar downloads the full manual. Interactive widgets appear in their initial state; the web version has everything.
When does the Nitente seal appear on a product?
Only where the link is not obvious: footer, loading screen, documents and announcements. See Brand architecture.
