About Lonely Planet

Bold, lowercase white wordmark reading "lonely planet" sits centered on a black square background. A thin white circular ring encloses and intersects the wordmark: the circle passes behind and is visually broken where the letters overlap, creating slight gaps where the type meets the ring.

The type is geometric and heavily rounded, with tight letterspacing and thick strokes that contrast with the fine ring. Overall the mark is high-contrast and minimalist, using only the white logotype and circle against the black field.

Shapes: circle (thin ring) wordmark rounded geometric letters

Style: minimalist flat bold geometric negative-space
