Our goal is to convey an image that blends a carefree, youthful spirit with the refreshing atmosphere of a tropical paradise, creating a visual identity that resonates with liveliness, authenticity, and the vibrant energy of Goçai.

LOGO VARIATIONS

We specify the different versions of the logo that can be used depending on the needs of the client or the different graphic and printed supports that are going to be used.

A grid has been designed for each version of the logo, this in order to maintain the same proportions.

The measurement used for the grid is the measure x that ensures the proportions of the mark.

This area must be free from any graphic elements that may interfere with the perception and readability of the brand. The construction of the clear space is determined by the dot of the letter "i" in the word "gocai," which represents the "x" measurement.

Whenever possible, it is preferable to maximize this space, keeping the logo separate from other elements on the page.
