Brand
You are welcome to use the HikariSwap name and mark to refer to the protocol — in articles, integrations, GitHub READMEs, dashboards, and similar contexts.
The name
HikariSwap is one word, capital H and capital S. "Hikari" (光) means light in Japanese — a nod to Lightchain.
In running prose, prefer HikariSwap. Avoid Hikari Swap, hikari swap, or HKSWAP (which is not a token symbol). When you need a short reference, Hikari is acceptable on second mention.
Palette
The Hikari palette is built for trading interfaces: a deep navy base with electric purple and magenta accents. All values are sourced from apps/web/src/app/globals.css.
| Token | Hex | Use |
|---|---|---|
| Background | #0A0B1A | Page background |
| Card | #14152C | Cards, panels, surfaces |
| Popover | #23264A | Floating menus, popovers |
| Muted | #1B1D38 | Insets, subtle dividers |
| Muted foreground | #CCCEEF | Labels, secondary text |
| Foreground | #FFFFFF | Primary text |
| Primary | #5B4BFF | Primary buttons, links, accents |
| Secondary | #DD00AC | Secondary actions, brand magenta |
| Success | #3CDFA8 | Confirmations, positive PnL |
| Warning | #FFB547 | Warnings |
| Destructive | #FF4D6A | Errors, irreversible actions |
The signature brand accent is the gradient linear-gradient(135deg, #5B4BFF 0%, #EE11FB 100%) — used on the logo wordmark and headline CTAs.
Typography
- Sans — Inter. UI, body, navigation, tables.
- Mono — JetBrains Mono. Addresses, code, numeric values.
Headlines are set in the same Inter family with tighter tracking and heavier weight — no separate display face.
Logo
The HikariSwap mark is a stylized monogram set in a multi-stop gradient that transitions through deep navy, teal, and magenta — the same palette as the app surface. The full lockup combines the mark with the wordmark.
Assets:
svg-logo.svg— full lockup, vectorlogo.png— square mark, rasterfavicon-32.png/favicon-512.png— favicons
All assets ship in apps/web/public/.
What to avoid
- Don't recolor the mark. The gradient is the brand.
- Don't add drop shadows, "glow", or recompose the gradient.
- Don't combine the wordmark with another wordmark in a way that implies affiliation, partnership, or endorsement we haven't agreed to.
- Don't use the mark as a token logo for an LC20 you deployed via the factory.
