Colophon

The command symbol of CommandShift3 was introduced by Apple icon artist Susan Kare for the original Macintosh in 1984. The cloverleaf-like symbol is commonly used in Scandinavia as an indicator of cultural locations and places of interest. This symbol, known as Saint John's Arms and sometimes referred to as Saint Hannes cross, dates back to pre-Christian times.

CommandShift3 is set in Arial, a typeface designed in 1982 by Robin Nicholas and Patricia Saunders for Monotype Typography. The text is set in Black #000000 and Blue #3399FF. Command Shift 3 is printed with archival pixels on acid-free screens that are free of fiber from ancient forests. The logo was created from the base forms of the command and shift symbol, with the 3 coming from the Futura font.
