Business aesthetic:

“Pneuma” is derived from Stoic philosophy meaning the “vital spirit” or “soul” and is a song from the band Tool’s fifth studio album “Fear Inoculum”. The business logo is related to the loop used in Ray Dalio’s “Principles” where he outlines how to develop principles to achieve goals in business and life. The philosophy of success is based on the idea that failure is not the opposite of success, but rather that failure is a critical component of success.
