01 / IDENTITY02 / SYSTEM03 / WORLDWHY CHANGE NOW
The G.R.I.D. started as a Minecraft server and grew into a wider gaming community with events, traditions, and projects created by its players.
The old cube gave The G.R.I.D. a recognizable starting point, but its thin lines and small details were harder to read in icons, stream graphics, in-game signs, and on phones.
The new logo keeps the same dimensional idea, but makes it bolder and easier to use. It works as a small icon, a stream graphic, or a large in-game build without losing its shape.
THEN / NOW
Drag the control to compare the legacy identity with the 2026 system.


The heavier lines make the mark easier to recognize, even at a small size.
The three outward paths keep the dimensional idea at the center of the logo.
The symbol, wordmark, and tagline now feel like parts of the same brand.
It stays clear as a server icon and still works at the scale of a monument in G.R.I.D. Central.
ANATOMY OF THE MARK
The mark uses an isometric grid, so it stays connected to blocks and building without looking like another generic cube logo.

The inner form anchors the symbol and creates a clear visual center.
Equal directions suggest a connected system with room to expand.
Angular endings echo blocks, pathways, and engineered construction.
CORE STANDARDS
A few simple rules help the logo look consistent across every district, department, event, and platform.

Keep at least one X around the mark, where X is the width of a primary arm.
32px
48px
72px
112pxUse the standalone symbol at 32 px or larger. Use the full lockup at 220 px wide or larger.
Use bold sans-serif type for headlines and monospaced type for labels and smaller system details.
WHERE IT SHOWS UP
The bolder shape stays clear in player lists, Discord avatars, scoreboards, and other small spaces.
