4.3 Minimum Size

  • Digital Wordmark: Do not display smaller than 120 pixels wide to maintain letterform clarity.

6. Typography

Listune uses clean, digital-first sans-serif typography that communicates clarity, modern tech culture, and effortless readability.

6.1 Logo Lettering

The Listune wordmark uses custom geometric sans-serif lettering characterized by bold stroke weight, a clean vertical capital L, smooth terminal curves on lowercase t, and circular geometry on e, u, and n. It is custom lettering rather than a single stock font.

6.2 Primary Brand Font: Inter

  • Font Family: Inter
  • Role: Primary brand font for all user-facing interfaces, body copy, descriptions, and labels.
  • Why It Fits: Designed for high legibility on computer screens, clean numeric figures, and neutral modern personality.
  • Recommended Weights: Regular (400), Medium (500), SemiBold (600), Bold (700).
  • Source & License: Open source under the SIL Open Font License 1.1. Available in fonts/Inter/.

6.3 Recommended Display Font: Plus Jakarta Sans

  • Font Family: Plus Jakarta Sans
  • Role: Display headlines, marketing materials, and closest open-source visual match to the logo lettering.
  • Why It Fits: Contemporary geometric curves, rounded terminals, and bold weights that harmonize with the Listune wordmark.
  • Recommended Weights: SemiBold (600), Bold (700), ExtraBold (800).
  • Source & License: Open source under the SIL Open Font License 1.1. Available in fonts/PlusJakartaSans/.

6.4 Typography Personality

  • Clean & Legible: Content always takes priority over decorative typography.
  • Geometric & Confident: Strong, clear headlines with balanced tracking and comfortable line heights.
  • Discord-Native: Neutral and modern, fitting naturally inside modern gaming and community environments.

7. Visual Style

7.1 Visual Direction

  • Dark-First Elegance: Listune lives in dark mode. Interfaces use deep charcoal and black backgrounds rather than stark pure grays.
  • Translucent Surfaces: Subtle frosted glass surfaces with soft borders convey depth and modern polish without visual clutter.
  • Electric Pink Focus: Pink is used deliberately as a focal accent for key interactive elements, status highlights, and branding cues.
  • Rounded Geometry: Soft, friendly rounded corners (from gentle card corners to pill-shaped action buttons) create an approachable, community-oriented feeling.

7.2 Atmosphere

The visual style feels like a late-night music listening lounge: dark, calm, atmospheric, illuminated by vibrant pink neon accents.

9. Motion & Animation Identity

Motion in the Listune brand identity is:

  • Smooth & Continuous: The signature 3D rotating logo turns in a continuous, frictionless loop, reflecting the perpetual flow of music.
  • Fluid & Responsive: Transitions feel natural, with ease-in and ease-out curves rather than abrupt linear cuts.
  • Subtle & Ambient: Animations draw attention to music states and primary actions without distracting from the playlist or conversation.
  • Restrained: Decorative motion is kept purposeful and respects reduced-motion accessibility preferences.

10. Brand Voice

Listune speaks with a voice that is:

  • Approachable: Friendly and conversational without being overly casual.
  • Direct & Concise: Explains features and instructions clearly without technical jargon or marketing fluff.
  • Music-Centric: Respects audio quality, playlists, and shared listening culture.
  • Discord-Native: Understands server communities, voice chat habits, and bot interaction conventions.

Communication Principles

  • State what the bot does plainly: "Play music from your voice channel or the web player."
  • Avoid exaggerated claims: do not use buzzwords like "revolutionizing audio forever" or "unmatched digital synergy".
  • Keep instructions actionable: tell users what command to run and what outcome to expect.

11. Brand Personality

If Listune were a person, it would be the reliable friend who always has the best playlist:

  • Attentive: Ready to play immediately upon request.
  • Modern: At home in digital chat communities and modern web spaces.
  • Tasteful: Prefers clean aesthetics, smooth audio, and uncluttered presentation.
  • Social: Built to bring people together around songs, albums, and voice room conversations.

12. Brand Do's and Don'ts

Logo & Identity

  • DO use the white logo variant on dark backgrounds.
  • DO use the circular icon for avatars, app icons, and social profiles.
  • DO preserve the exact primary Listune Pink (#f3678e).
  • DON'T distort, stretch, or skew the logo.
  • DON'T rotate the logo or place it on angles.

  • DO maintain strong contrast between text and background surfaces.
