About Hermes

A horizontal, two-tier logo: on top is a detailed orange silhouette illustration of a horse harnessed to a two-wheeled carriage with a standing groom/handler at the horse's head. The illustration sits on a thin horizontal baseline. Below the illustration is a bold, all-caps serif wordmark reading "HERMÈS" with a grave-accented E, and the smaller word "PARIS" centered beneath it.

The entire mark is rendered in a single warm orange hue on a light/white background. The illustration is fine-lined and slightly engraved in style, while the wordmark is a classic, high-contrast serif that communicates a traditional, luxury aesthetic.
