# Figma

> `figma@1.0.0`

Figma is a browser-based design and prototyping platform — and since the 2024 expansion, also a sites/dev-mode/AI surface — owned by Adobe. The brand voice is collaborative, playful, and developer- adjacent. Visually, Figma is recognized by its five-color mark (orange, coral, purple, blue, green) and its clean white-canvas marketing surfaces with near-black body text. Where competitors pick one signature color, Figma's identity IS the five-color composition.

### Palette

**Figma** · `figma@1.0.0` · Proprietary — All Rights Reserved

> Figma's brand palette, anchored on the five colored shapes of the Figma mark: orange-red (#F24E1E), coral (#FF7262), purple (#A259FF), cyan-blue (#1ABCFE), and green (#0ACF83), set on a clean white canvas with near-black text. The five mark colors form the brand's primary accent system; the orange-red reads as the signature when a single brand color is required.

## Rules

### 🛑 error (6)

#### `colorChoice` → `logo.mark`

- **allowed:** figma-orange, figma-coral, figma-purple, figma-blue, figma-green, figma-white, figma-black
- **forbidden:** any-non-brand-color

> The five mark colors are the documented composition; only the neutral black/white monochrome variants are permitted as alternates. Figma's brand guidance forbids modifying the mark into other hues. 

#### `forbiddenTreatment` → `logo`

- **treatments:** stretched, rotated, recolored, drop-shadow, on-busy-photo, fragmented-into-other-identities, integrated-with-other-marks

> Figma's brand guidelines explicitly prohibit modifying the marks or integrating parts of them into other identities. The mark is a fixed composition of five colored shapes. 

#### `contrastRatio` → `text-primary`

- **against:** `background`
- **minRatio:** `4.5`
- **standard:** `WCAG-AA`

> WCAG 2.1 Level AA contrast minimum for body text. Figma Black (#000000) on Figma White (#FFFFFF) clears AA comfortably. 

#### `variantSelection` → `logo`

- **use:** `logo-light`
- **when:** `backgroundColorScheme="dark"`

> On dark surfaces, use Figma's documented light-on-dark mark variant; do not invert the five-color SVG on the fly. 

#### `contextRestriction` → `roles.colors.identity`

- **forbiddenContexts:** product-of-competitor, merchandise, endorsement-implication, company-name-or-domain

> Figma's brand guidelines forbid use of "Figma" in third-party company names, product names, domain names, and social-media handles, and forbid uses that imply affiliation. 

#### `accessibilityRequirement` → `*`

- **standard:** `WCAG-AA`
- **criterion:** `1.4.3`

> WCAG 2.1 Success Criterion 1.4.3 (Contrast Minimum) — Level AA. Figma-skinned surfaces must clear AA on body text. 

### ⚠️ warning (1)

#### `enumMembership` → `typography.heading.fontWeight`

- **allowed:** 500, 600, 700

> Inter on figma.com renders headings in the 500–700 band; lighter weights compromise the bold, confident voice of the marketing surface. 

### 💡 recommendation (1)

#### `compositionConstraint` → `roles.colors.mark-orange`

- **pairsWith:** figma-white, figma-black

> When a single Figma color is used as accent, it pairs cleanly with white or black. Combining it with another mark color outside the canonical composition risks reading as a corrupted mark.
