RACINGVIN™ DESIGN REFERENCE

RVDS / 01 · TECHNICAL REGISTRY

One identity. One design language.

Identity, authority, chronology, evidence, provenance and permanence. This is a component reference; example badges do not verify any vehicle.

Canonical wordmark

RACINGVIN

Use the uppercase wordmark with its trademark symbol at brand touchpoints. The product masthead uses the graphite logo variant with its green shield check; documents use this neutral text treatment. RacingVIN remains the product name in prose.

Evidence status

These six states are fixed. Color, icon and wording travel together.

Color roles

Warm ivory is the engineering-paper canvas. Graphite carries actions; steel carries rules, diagrams and navigation states. The supplied logo retains its acid accent. Evidence colors keep their specific meanings.

Engineering paper

A 24px steel micro-grid at 4% opacity meets a 120px major grid at 7%. Masks keep reading areas quiet. History uses horizontal rules, identity graphs use coordinate points, and market views use chart divisions. Datum marks are decorative; illustrative drawings are not to scale.

Navigation plate

The product header uses cool steel (#CBD0CA), a lighter search surface (#E9ECE7), graphite text and a thin bottom datum rule. The homepage uses an 82px desktop header and reveals search after the hero form scrolls away. Registry and record pages retain the 94px search header. Mobile search uses its own row. Green appears only in the logo's shield check; selected views and keyboard focus use graphite.
