The wordmark

The publication’s wordmark is the words The Web4 Bulletin, set in Tiempos Text or Source Serif 4 at semibold weight, with the kicker Volume IV · A standing publication beneath. The wordmark must appear above a thin deep-blue rule (#1d3a8a) when used in editorial contexts. The kicker must remain in Inter and must not be set in the same face as the wordmark.

The lockup is reproduced in the Bulletin’s masthead on every page of this site. We do not currently distribute a downloadable SVG of the wordmark; outside publications quoting the Bulletin may use the name as plain text. We treat that as the canonical form. If your publication’s style requires an image asset, contact the press address below.

Brand palette

The Bulletin’s palette is locked and editorial. It is:

• Paper — #fbfaf7. The cream-white the Bulletin’s pages use as the base surface. Used as background for all editorial layouts; never used for body type.
• Ink — #111317. The Bulletin’s primary body and headline color. Reproductions should hold this near-black; do not substitute pure black except in print.
• Graphite — #2b2f36. Body prose color on the article surface. Slightly warmer than ink.
• Slate — #5b6068. Metadata, kickers, and secondary copy.
• Rule — #d8d4c8. Hairline borders, card edges, table grids.
• Cream — #f1ede2. Secondary surface for sidebars, anchor entries, and pull sections.
• Signal — #1d3a8a. The deep-blue editorial accent. Used for kickers, links, prediction highlights, and the rule above the masthead. This is the publication’s color identifier.
• Accent — #2f5fbf. Hover state for the signal blue. Avoid using as a primary color in static reproductions.

Typography

The Bulletin sets headlines and body in Tiempos Text (with Source Serif 4 as the fallback face). UI, kickers, and metadata set in Inter. Code and metadata stamps set in JetBrains Mono. The drop cap on the first paragraph of every essay is part of the typographic identity; reproductions that omit it lose the publication’s editorial signature.

Official tagline

Tracking the Web4 thesis: agentic infrastructure, autonomous services, and the post-app internet.

The shorter form, used in social cards and print blurbs, is The Web4 thesis. A standing publication.
