A live, editable T monogram you can download as SVG or PNG right now — plus what the shape of a T actually demands from a logo designer.
A single vertical stem crossed by a full-width horizontal arm at the cap-height — the simplest capital after the I.

The T is top-heavy by construction. All of its horizontal mass sits at the very top, and the lower two-thirds of the letter is a bare stem with empty space on both sides. Geometrically centred, a T always looks like it is floating upward. The letter is also extremely simple — like the H, it offers a typeface almost nothing to characterise, so a T monogram in most sans faces is generic.
Push the T upward, not downward: because the arm is at the top, letting the arm nearly touch the container's top edge and allowing the stem to end short of the bottom actually looks more deliberate than true centring. Serif and slab faces help enormously here — a foot serif on the stem gives the T a base, and bracketed arm terminals give it detail. Alternatively use a face with a distinctive T, such as one with angled arm cuts.
The T is very robust at 16px: two thick perpendicular strokes and no counters. Its risk is genericness rather than degradation.
The T's empty lower quadrants are excellent tuck-in space. TA is the classic tight pair — the A's diagonal slides right under the T's arm. TO, TE and TI all work well. The T is one of the most cooperative first letters for a lockup.
A sans T is a plus sign with the bottom cut off. Roboto Slab adds a foot and arm slabs that anchor the letter and give it something to be. See what Roboto Slab looks like as an icon , or swap it for any of the 900+ Google Fonts in the editor.
Geometric centring and optical centring are not the same thing. Nudge the T until it looks centred, not until the numbers say it is.
Corner radius changes the mood more than the font does. A 0% square reads as technical, 20% as an app icon, 50% as a personal avatar.
