The color(s) Black, White, Pink, Orange and/or Brown is/are claimed as a feature of the mark.
The mark consists of For the culture Africa is represented through the words as seen "for the culture", and the imagery as presented "Africa". The imagery above the words is an abstract representation of the words Africa and Culture. In Igbo African culture, the kolanut signifies life, blessings, abundance and more. It is one of the most important elements our Igbo African culture in practice. The logo shows the kolanut, the lobes of the kolanut are divided in six parts, this has a lot of cultural significance. The two kolanut pieces are presented on a platter, for ease in business card printing and the likes, we have made the platter a simple orange circle. In future replications of this design we may choose to put more detail into the platter, another significant element is that kolanut is served on a wooden platter, this color can also be presented as brown instead of orange. We intend to reserve the right to use Africa literally in letters/words and figuratively through symbols/abstract imagery.
