About AC DC

A bold, monochrome wordmark composed of four heavy, angular capital letters: A C on the left and D C on the right. A stylised, jagged lightning-bolt graphic replaces the slash between the two pairs of letters and aligns vertically with the letterforms, creating a symmetrical central focal point.

The lettering uses sharp, Gothic-inspired geometry with pointed terminals and consistent stroke weight, giving a carved, heavy-metal aesthetic. The mark is rendered entirely in a dark charcoal/black tone on a white background with no additional ornamentation or gradients.
