Symbol ideas

  • building factory
  • robot arm
  • printer 3d
  • settings
  • settings 2

Open source icons (ISC and MIT). Others can use the same icon, so a symbol mark is less unique than a monogram or an abstract mark.

Layout

A manufacturer name often goes on a building, so letters need open counters and steady weight to read as raised metal from the sidewalk. Plan a long horizontal version for vehicle sides.
