Or, a cross couped Teal.
A modern field, a familiar mathematical symbol, and a deliberately simple mark.
A cross for addition—and connection
The primary departmental mark is blazoned Or, a cross couped Teal. The muted teal cross ends within the gold square field rather than extending to its boundaries. It works as an heraldic charge and, quite naturally, as the mathematical plus sign.
The arms are a distinctive visual device for this open mathematics project, not a claim of institutional charter, official heraldic recognition, or academic accreditation.
Our palette
The gold-field square is the canonical mark and favicon. The muted-teal-field version remains available as a secondary variation. The header includes the SVG inline so the logo appears without a separate image request.
Secondary variation
Teal, a cross couped Or. The original orientation remains available for compositions where the teal field is more appropriate. It is not the primary logo or favicon.
Why a separate identity?
Mathematics Project belongs to the broader James Howard family of websites, but its learning materials should stand on their own. A visitor should immediately recognize a course, a diagram, an experiment, and a mathematical claim as parts of the same teaching system.
