Chevron

A chevron is a V-shaped symbol or pattern, characterized by a diagonal arrangement of two slanting lines that converge at a point. It is commonly used in various contexts, including heraldry, graphic design, and military insignia. In heraldry, the chevron symbolizes protection and is often associated with the concept of shelter or support. In design, chevrons can appear as repeating patterns or motifs in textiles, wallpapers, and visual graphics, adding a dynamic and energetic visual element. Additionally, in a military context, chevrons denote rank or service, typically worn on uniforms or insignias. The term “chevron” can also refer to similar shapes in architecture or in industrial designs, often conveying a sense of direction or movement.
