This logo represents the shared geography, unity, and Architectural identity of South Asia. The circular ring symbolizes the strong bond and collaboration among the seven South Asian nations: India, Bangladesh, Pakistan, Nepal, Bhutan, Sri Lanka, and the Maldives.
The outer ring is inspired by the geographical setting of South Asia, much of which is surrounded by vast water bodies including the Indian Ocean, Arabian Sea, Bay of Bengal, and Laccadive Sea. The aqua blue segment represents these surrounding waters. The green symbolizes the regions rich forests and natural landscapes.
At the center, the typography abstracts the abbreviation AASA through architectural forms inspired by the peaks of the Himalayan mountains the northern boundary of the region and the varied topography of South Asia.
