The problem

Construction work slows the logo down

  • 01

    Grids drawn by hand

    Building construction grids line by line is slow and hard to repeat across concepts.

  • 02

    Extra anchor points

    Unneeded points make curves harder to edit and paths less clean.

  • 03

    Clearspace set by eye

    An exclusion zone that is not documented is hard to apply consistently.

The solution

One panel for the construction layer

GridArc generates the grid, cleans the anchors and builds the clearspace guides from the artwork you select, so the geometry behind the logo is visible and documented.

Features

What GridArc does

Grid

Create and work with logo construction grids to document geometric relationships and bring structure to your design process.

Anchor

Refine anchor points and improve path quality with dedicated anchor tools, including Smart Anchor Cleanup, designed to remove unnecessary points while preserving the original shape and curves.

  • Cleanup with an adjustable tolerance

Clearspace

Generate structured clearspace guides to help establish and document the exclusion area around your logo and its components.
