dot. custom deployment · 100 units · card + metal
The Create Paradise Now Studio mark, prepared for a co-branded dot. run: a matte obsidian card, a brushed steel card and the Sovereign NFC Band 2.0. Every vector is outlined, and every size is checked against what foil, fiber lasers and silicone molds can hold.
The mark
The name runs in Inter Medium caps with open tracking. NOW is set in Bold, and its O is the living sun from createparadise.now: the ring matches the letter and sixteen rays break the cap line. STUDIO sits on a hairline below.
Wordmark
N and W step up to Bold 700, so NOW keeps the weight it carries on the site.
Solar emblem
Ring Ø 1.08 X. Rays keep the site's 0°, 30°, 45°, 60° rhythm and reach 0.48 X past cap line and baseline.
Descriptor
Cap height 0.44 X, centred between two rules 0.06 X thick that run the full width of the name.
Clear space
Minimum width 50 mm in print and 320 px on screen. Below that, the emblem stands alone.
The hardware
Rendered at true ID-1 proportion from the same paths as the production files. Move across a card to catch the light, then flip it to see the back.
dot. card
A soft black body in the studio's deep ink. The lockup is metallic gold, 62 mm wide and centred on the front. The sun and the address sit on the back.
Physics checkA laser on black PVC leaves a grey mark, never gold. On this card the gold has to come from hot foil or metallic ink, or from a laminate with a gold layer under the black.
dot. metal
Brushed steel, left uncoated. The same layout is fiber-laser engraved 0.10 mm deep, so the mark reads as frosted steel you can feel under a fingertip.
Physics checkEngraving exposes the steel itself, so the mark reads silver-grey. For a gold mark on metal, use a gold-plated card under a black coating: the laser removes the coating and reveals the plating.
Sovereign NFC Band 2.0
The sun alone, molded into the band over the NFC chip and color-filled in Solar Gold. At Ø 14 mm every ray and every gap measures 0.69 mm, above the usual 0.5 mm minimum for molded silicone detail.
MeasuredRays 0.69 mm, core gap 0.69 mm, ring 1.28 mm. The site's screen geometry would leave a 0.46 mm gap, too narrow to mold, so the band uses the production cut.
The files
Every file below is built in this page from one set of outlined paths. SVGs carry fills only, one color each. PNGs are rendered on your device through HTML5 Canvas, transparent, at full size.
For the dot. order form: upload dot-card_front_gold-foil.svg under Upload Logo/Design, then paste the design notes from the spec below into Design Notes.
The spec
Targets to confirm on your machines and on a physical proof before the run. Sizes marked as measured come straight from the files in this kit.

| dot. card matte black | Hot foil or metallic ink, gold | none foil | 0.15 mm | 0.20 mm | 1.2 mm cap | 3 mm from edges | No laser for gold: on black PVC it marks grey. CO₂ lasers are not used on PVC, which releases hydrogen chloride. |

Co-branding: CREATE PARADISE NOW STUDIO. Vector SVG attached: text outlined, fills only, 1:1 in mm. CARD (matte black, #191207): front lockup 62 mm wide, centred. Back: sun 12 mm + createparadise.now. Gold = hot foil or metallic ink matched to #B9883E (e.g. PMS 871 C). A laser would mark grey, so no laser on this card. METAL (brushed stainless, uncoated): same layout, fiber-laser deep engrave 0.10 mm, natural finish. Keep 3 mm from all edges and clear of the NFC antenna zone. Please send a digital proof before production.
