Four directions. Each shown on dark and light grounds. All marks SVG — scalable, production-ready.
A
The Numeral Mark
The "1" wears a fold-tab crown — a sharp parallelogram that reads as a crease at the top of the stroke. A hairline diagonal scores through the "6" bowl, making the fold visible inside the numeral itself. Big, ownable, and utterly literal.

B
The Fold Geometry
A single paper fold reduced to its platonic minimum — two planes and a ridge. The near face is Blueprint Blue, the shadow face deep navy, and the cream crease is the fold itself. The echoed smaller mark behind it says "multiplication" without trying.

C
The Stack / Layer Mark
Sixteen rules form a perfect rectangle — from a distance, a solid block; up close, 16 distinct layers (one per agent in The Machine). The 9th rule — the fold — glows cream, the single beat of difference that earns a second look. "×16" whispers in the corner.

D
The Wordmark Refined
The "16" is knocked out cream-on-Blueprint-Blue — a solid block of brand color that anchors the entire mark. "Fold" in Inter ultralight rides beside it, held in tension by extreme weight contrast. No icon. The numbers ARE the brand.
