The decision
A maker's mark, not a logo wall.
A card that shouts is a card that tells a stranger what it is. That is the opposite of what this object is for.
So the mark is small, set in the same rose-gold as the line, and placed where a thumb naturally rests rather than centred like a badge.
Held at arm's length it reads as a texture. Held close, it reads as a name. That is the right order.
