+
+Sustainable visual identity design is a design that recycles
+as many elements as possible with every new piece of
+communication. Not only is a brand strengthened every time the
+logo and any other identity forming visual element is used, a
+lot of work is also saved as well. Every logo variant is a
+weakening of the brand, not a strengthening.
+
+Of course design improvements can be made - always, all year
+'round - preferably not right up to the next conference.
+
+I consider it a waste of time to create a sublogo for a
+minidebconf. The Debian logo is perfectly suitable as logo for a
+Debian conference.
+
+In the particular case of the Barcelona MiniDebConf 2014, I think
+the Debian Women logo is the proper logo to use, though, since it
+is a Debian Women project, contradictionary as it may sound.
+
+The same principle of recycling typography and grids. I'd like as
+much identity matter - and work - to be reused, as possible. There
+is no need to reinvent the wheel every time.
+
+A visual theme created with illustration and colour schemes is
+enough as identity indicator for smaller events like MiniDebConfs.
