Shape language across type, radius and icons carries brand personality. Use when starting a design system, picking icons or radius tokens, or reviewing visual consistency.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Brand Visual Language

Visual shape communicates personality. A rounded corner says something different to the user than a sharp one — and that message arrives before they read a single word. The shapes in typography, border-radius, and iconography should tell a consistent story.

## Shape Language

| Shape | Tone | Associated with |
|---|---|---|
| **Rounded, pill-shaped** | Friendly, approachable, playful, modern | Consumer apps, health, kids, lifestyle, social |
| **Softly rounded (8–12px)** | Professional, warm, accessible | SaaS, productivity, general B2B |
| **Lightly rounded (2–4px)** | Precise, structured, efficient | Enterprise tools, finance, data platforms |
| **Sharp / no radius** | Technical, serious, authoritative | Developer tools, security, industrial |

Every component — cards, inputs, modals, badges — should follow the same radius logic.

## Radius for Large Surfaces

The perceived "roundedness" of an element changes with its scale. A radius that looks soft on a button may look sharp on a large container.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add dembrandt/dembrandt-skills/brand-visual-language@sha256:fe9732ceb276d77a

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261001.b05848a, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
