======= Artwork ======= .. figure:: images/logo-over-white.svg :align: center Setuptools logo, designed in 2021 by `Anderson Bravalheri`_ Elements of Design ================== The main colours of the design are a dark pastel azure (``#336790``) and a pale orange (``#E5B62F``), referred in this document simply as "blue" and "yellow" respectively. The text uses the *Monoid* typeface, an open source webfont that was developed by Andreas Larsen and contributors in 2015 and is distributed under the MIT or SIL licenses (more information at https://github.com/larsenwork/monoid) Usage ===== The preferred way of using the setuptools logo is over a white (or light) background. Alternatively, the following options can be considered, depending on the circumstances: - *"negative"* design - for dark backgrounds (e.g. website displayed in "dark mode"): the white colour (``#FFFFFF``) of the background and the "blue" (``#336790``) colour of the design can be swapped. - *"monochrome"* - when colours are not available (e.g. black and white printed media): a completely black or white version of the logo can also be used. - *"banner"* mode: the symbol and text can be used alongside depending on the available space. The following image illustrate these alternatives: .. image:: images/logo-demo.svg :align: center Please refer to the SVG files in the `setuptools repository`_ for the specific shapes and proportions between the elements of the design. Working with the Design ======================= The `setuptools repository`_ contains a series of vector representations of the design under the ``docs/images`` directory. These representations can be manipulated via any graphic editor that support SVG files, however the free and open-source software Inkscape_ is recommended for maximum compatibility. When selecting the right file to work with, file names including ``editable-inkscape`` indicate "more editable" elements (e.g. editable text), while the others prioritise SVG paths for maximum reproducibility. Also notice that you might have to `install the correct fonts`_ to be able to visualise or edit some of the designs. Inspiration =========== This design was inspired by :user:`cajhne`'s `original proposal`_ and the ancient symbol of the ouroboros_. It features a snake moving in a circular trajectory not only as a reference to the Python programming language but also to the `wheel package format`_ as one of the distribution formats supported by setuptools. The shape of the snake also resembles a cog, which together with the hammer is a nod to the two words that compose the name of the project.
