Around Town / Visual identity / Concept 01

Good company.
A little more local.

A fresh identity for an urban cycling community. For gentle weekend rides, hands-on repair classes, and routes worth sharing with a friend.

Take the scenic route.
Two wheels. A whole town. ↗
An open invitation to get out and go.Community first. Always.
01 / The ingredients

Built for getting together.

Two connected loops become wheels, a shared route, and a little symbol of belonging. Simple enough to go anywhere.

A neighborhood palette01

Cobalt leads on white. Blue Mist adds a soft accent, while deep blue anchors the words.

Aa BbMeet you outside.

Nimbus Sans for clear, easygoing words. A little Palladio italic for the human touch.

A voice that invites you in03
Less hurry.
More hello.

Warm, curious, and never competitive. Talk like a friend with a favorite route.
“Come along. We'll find the way.”

Color roles: cobalt #2454DB on white #FFFFFF for the identity, controls, routes, and ordinary confirmations. Green #1A7545 appears only after successful signup. Errors use clay red #943E2B on a warm blush background, with words and an exclamation mark.

02 / Follow the friendly line

A route, with room to wander.

Rounded lines and familiar little icons make the community feel easy to join, whether you're riding, learning, or sharing.

04 / Component showcase

Small details. A warmer welcome.

A practical set of components, with clear actions, helpful feedback, and space to breathe.

01 / Buttons with a clear purpose

Primary: cobalt fill, white text. Use for the main action.
Secondary: cobalt outline, transparent fill. Use for supporting actions.
48 px minimum height · 20 px horizontal padding · pill corners.
Hover darkens the primary and adds Blue Mist to the secondary. Keyboard focus gets a 2 px outline; disabled actions use muted Cloud.

02 / Fields that help you along

Required. Used only to preview this field; nothing is sent.

48 px minimum height · 12 px padding · 8 px corners.
Keep labels visible. Put helper text below the field. Focus uses a cobalt ring; errors add a warm red border and a specific correction.

03 / Feedback, in plain language

Successful signup: green + a check. Other confirmations: cobalt + a check. Error: clay red (#943E2B) + an exclamation. Always include words, a clear next step, and an icon; color alone is never the message. Inline feedback stays visible until corrected.
