Granted by you · 29 Oct 2026

Vezir may draft and send supplier briefs within this scope. Anything above it comes back to you.

Your authority, carried within the limits you set.

The grand vizier held the sultan’s seal. He acted in the sultan’s name, only as far as he had been granted, and when he was dismissed the seal was taken back.

Vezir carries your seal. The tension is authority against restraint, so the brand makes the boundary visible: every action says who allowed it, for what, and until when.

That is a chief of staff’s job: decisive inside the mandate, still outside it. The look is civic rather than ceremonial. Registry paper, a court clerk’s type, and one vermilion press that appears only when you authorise something.

The press

The whole art

One document carries the system. The campaign line sits in its margin, the mandate is set plainly, and the only colour on the board is the impression on its authorisation foot.

Mark

Two crowns, two meanings. The ink crown signs and identifies. The vermilion impression is pressed once per authorisation, its ink clipped to the exact crown so the edge can only roughen inward.

The press, 650 ms. The stamp comes down and its shadow tightens, the ink spreads evenly from 96% inside the crown, the stamp lifts, then stillness. One colour throughout.

Never stamp outside the mandate, or let approval read as delivery.

Never scatter seals as decoration. Every impression stands for one authorisation.

Type and colour

ITC Garamond Light gives breadth without luxury contrast; its italic is kept for scope words alone. Graphik does the work. The palette is mostly paper and ink, with vermilion held back for authorisation.

Social

Nine tiles, nine jobs. Impressions appear only on tiles that show an authorisation; routine work is signed with the ink crown. The story rests on the finished impression and presses once when it comes into view.

Story, 9:16. One press, then stillness.

The grid

  1. Campaign line on paper, no impression.
  2. An authorised impression with its mandate foot.
  3. Macro of ink in registry paper, drawn in SVG.
  4. Scope in italic, the only place italic goes.
  5. The product moment: approved, then sending.
  6. Approval isn’t delivery, shown as three steps.
  7. Revoke, in the mandate list where it lives.
  8. Permission expired, with the way back.
  9. Request access, on an ink ground.

Outside

The billboard is a line and the ink crown, with nothing authorised, so nothing pressed. The platform runs one supplier brief across three posters, and only the third carries the seal.

Three posters on a metro platform wall

Send the brief. Within your limits. On your authority.

Two-poster variant. One euro apart, and only the amount inside the mandate carries the seal.

Product

A consequential approval asks you to hold. Routine work under a standing mandate asks for nothing. Every mandate carries Revoke. Both frames are live.

How an approval behaves

  1. Hold for 600 ms. A ring fills around the button as you hold; let go early and it drains back.
  2. Or approve without holding, with one plain confirmation.
  3. The impression comes after the record. It appears only once the approval is stored, with the time and the scope.
  4. Sending has its own status: approved, sending, then sent. Approval never reads as delivery.
  5. Routine work asks for nothing. It is signed with the ink crown and the mandate it ran under.
  6. Revoke sits on every standing mandate. Expired access says so and offers the way back.

The site is one mandate, read from top to bottom: the press on entry, the scope, approval apart from sending, revocation, then a request for access.
