I second the Acme window t-shirt idea :-)

By the upper-left of an acme window, I assume you mean something like this:

I can't recall for certain, but I believe at some point Caerwyn may
have been using something similar as an icon for Acme SAC.

As an aside, the color selection and geometric layout of acme always
reminded me of the works of Piet Mondrian:

I wonder if he was an influence of Rob's or Renee's.
