The wordmark is the logo

No mark, no monogram in the masthead. The name is set once, correctly, and every other use is a derivation of it.

Construction
Arcane
Clear space on all four sides equals the cap height of the A. Nothing sits inside it — no rule, no tagline, no navigation.

The trailing letterspace on the final E is compensated with an equal left indent, so the wordmark optically centres in any container.

Mark beside wordmark
The compass mark stays a product icon for Alpha. It never appears next to the wordmark, because a title that publishes evidence should not need a symbol to be recognised.
