Brand Identity System

The code::core mark.

A design system built on the language of engineers — the :: operator, simultaneously a CSS pseudo-element and a C++ scope resolution operator. Reference: CAC-BRAND-2025-001

01 — The Mark

code::core

CSS Pseudo-element
element::after

The double colon bridges adjacent elements — exactly what the mark does between code and core.

C++ Scope Resolution
std::vector

In C++, :: connects a namespace to its member. code is the namespace; core lives inside it.

2×2 Pixel Grid

Four dots in a 2×2 matrix — a pixel grid, circuit node, four cardinal points. Blue = logic/code. Gold = craft/core.
