Freedam's take

I really appreciate how direct Obsidian keeps their brand documentation. Instead of setting up a sprawling portal, they present their core marks and lockup rules on a clean, single page against dark backgrounds. They connect visitors straight to Figma for working files, while their design blog post adds an interactive preview tool where you can test the faceted icon across palettes and grab PNG, SVG, ICO, or ICNS assets directly. It feels lean, tool-focused, and completely in tune with their software philosophy.

Quick answers

Where can I access Obsidian's official design assets?

Obsidian offers a 'View on Figma' button on its brand guidelines page, and direct PNG, SVG, ICO, and ICNS downloads on its icon blog post.14

Can I modify the Obsidian logo for commercial use?

No. The guidelines prohibit editing, distorting, or recoloring the logo, and note that commercial use requires inquiry while personal app icon customization is permitted.25
