Brand guidelines
The Clubhouse - Tournament Pine + Volt Lime. Course-at-dusk confidence, not stuffy clubhouse and not friendly-pastel. One hue, one signal, high contrast.
Logo
The GCS badge with the wordmark beneath is the primary lockup. Use the badge alone where space is tight and the square icon for avatars and app tiles. Pine on light surfaces; white or lime on the dark pine sections. Always use these files - never retype or restyle the mark.

Colour
One hue family - deep Tournament Pine - plus a single acid Volt Lime signal on warm sand paper. Lime is a dark-section-only accent (it carries pine ink text, never white, and fails on light paper); on light, accents are green. All text pairings pass WCAG AA.

Typography
Space Grotesk for headings (mechanical-geometric, sports-tech) ·Inter for body (hyper-legible) · JetBrains Mono for the golf-numbers tell (labels, tee times, prices).
Tee times, sorted.
Heading 1 - book a round in seconds
Heading 2 - your tee sheet, your rules
Heading 3 - no green-fee commission
Body - the booking, payments and membership backbone for golf clubs, without the bloated software and the marketplace cut. Plain to set up, plain to price.
Muted secondary text - used for supporting detail and captions.
Voice
Friendly and professional, like a good club secretary: plain words, specific claims, prices on the page. Say "no booking commission" and mean it; never "unlock seamless experiences". Short sentences. British English. Numbers over adjectives.
