# About Mamikos Logo
Our Mami is a representation of a mother in kos. Inspired by the care and perseverance figure that we represent as mother.
# Logo Elements
Mamikos logo is a combination of two elements. These two elements are often inseparable, except for an app icon then we use Mami icon.
# Icon
While the icon can exist without the wordmark, the wordmark should never exist without the icon.
# Logo Variations
A brand logo travels places, from mobile app to bill boards, brochure, TVC, etc. Every medium offers a unique challenge in communication and consistency, which creates a need for logo variations.
# Icon
It’s a picture worth a thousand words.
# Horizontal
Used at anytime and any medium when icon and wordmark appear in pairs
# Logo Misuse
It's important to pay attention to the consistency of the logo's appearance. It is forbidden to add, change or modify the logo of the Mamikos. There are no exceptions.
# Safe Area and Logo Appearance
As with all matters of heart, our logo needs its space. When the logo is placed against other visual elements, the minimum safe area provides a breathing space for the logo. This maintains a visual emphasis essential for brand identity.
The logo and the icon’s exclusion zone is equal to half the height of the icon (marked as × in the diagram)

# Compositions
A brand iconic shape should be inspired by the objects that are always there in its daily business. Ours is inspired by a window
There’s always a window in kos, and a window in kos is not just a window. It’s a thing we open when we want to get fresh air, it’s also a place to wander and thinking of an idea, or thinking of someone special, or staring at the rain.
