Design system

Harbor by Signalry. The hotels-only marketplace for work that must get done.

Mark and wordmark

Harbor
Harborby SignalryHarborHarbor by Signalry

Cove and quay. Line only. 1.6-weight kin to the icon set. One seal, one wordmark. Never in a purple square. Never inside a pill. Legal line is Harbor by Signalry — the mark stays Harbor.

Voice

Calm, specific, high integrity. Short sentences. Concrete nouns. No hype.

Speak like a GM at 6 a.m., not a SaaS landing page.

  • Name the job, the desk, and the proof — in that order.
  • Prefer hotel language: keys, folio, night audit, GOP, rush room.
  • Label every claim. If it cannot be labeled, it does not ship.
  • Never invent a metric or a hotel price. Resolve by JTBD slug.
  • Demo software is a category shape, not a brand partnership.
  • Hotels only. No hospitality grab-bag.
  • Original diagrams. No stock photo of a real hotel as a Harbor asset.

Do

  • · Lead with how, then who, then proof.
  • · Use advice / claimed / verified exactly; never mix them.
  • · Write in the present tense of the floor.
  • · Keep color to stone, ink, brass, and sea.
  • · Leave room. Luxury is restraint.

Don’t

  • · No purple SaaS, neon gradients, or stock hospitality smiles.
  • · No unlock, supercharge, seamless, all-in-one, AI-powered, world-class, or exceptional.
  • · No pay-to-rank language, invented metrics, or unlabeled numbers.
  • · No restaurants, venues, or broad hospitality grab-bags.
  • · No dark mode as the default surface.
  • · No unqualified Harbor in SEO titles — CNCF Harbor (goharbor.io) is a container registry.

Voice examples

Hype out. Desk in.

Don’t

Unlock seamless hotel ops with AI-powered insights.

Do

Name the job. Then the how. Then who can sit it.

Don’t

World-class explainers. Exceptional and honest.

Do

Explainers, a labeled estimate, a public tape. Never a confidential price dressed as fact.

Don’t

Supercharge your NOI with an all-in-one platform.

Do

Rebuild the T12 from the PMS. If you cannot, you have a CIM, not NOI.

Don’t

Best-in-class valuation engine.

Do

A labeled worksheet: direct cap, price per key, a ±50 bps / ±10% ADR shock. Not an appraisal.

Diagrams

Original. Never a staged hotel.

How / who / proof, buy/sell triangulation, diligence lanes, trust rungs, score mix. SVG components. Wikimedia stills stay captioned when a real house appears.

How, then who, then proofThree basins on a waterline: a brief, a ranked bench of people software and agents, then claim evidence and caveat. Advice until attested.HowThe briefWhoPeople · software · agentsProofClaim · evidence · caveat
Harbor path: a how brief, then a ranked who, then labeled proof.
Buy / sell triangulationThree points a number has to survive: the house on the graph, the file you can open, and a cited tape or a labeled worksheet. Confidential consideration stays blank.The houseGraph · keys · marketThe fileT12 · PIP · leaseThe numberCited tape or labeled worksheet
A number that cannot sit on all three points is a story. Harbor will not invent the missing side.
Diligence lanesEight lanes a deal has to cross: night audit, brand, FF and E, ground lease, management, legal, close week, then written kill-switches. Questions that may end the deal.INightPMS before CIMIIBrandTerm · PIPIIIFF&EWalked roomsIVLeaseClock vs PIPVMgmtExit rightsVILegalUgly ordinaryVIICloseCutoff nightKKillsWrite them
Diligence is a sequence of questions that may end the deal. The last lane is the kill list — written down, not implied.
Advice, claimed, verifiedThree rungs on a waterline. Advice is a path. Claimed is what someone said. Verified needs a criterion, evidence, and a caveat.01AdviceHarbor’s how. A path, not a result.02ClaimedThe house or vendor said this.03VerifiedCriterion, evidence, caveat.
Mix the rungs and the catalog lies. Advice stays advice until a finished job is attested.
Post-job score mixOutcome fifty percent, integrity thirty, fit twenty. Placement is not for sale. A listing without a finished job is new, not a ten.50%OutcomeDid the named job finish30%IntegrityHonest fee. No silent folio.20%FitThis house. This job.
Scores are post-job. There is no sponsored slot behind the number.

Empty state

No match

Nothing matches that wording yet

Try night audit, rush room, or GOP — or open the catalog. Harbor will not invent a job.
