The Frontier 55

One architecture — four lanes, three surfaces, one self-improving knowledge graph — deployed across fifty-five domains where knowledge is fragmented and verification is non-negotiable. Money gardens fund meaning gardens. The pattern is the moat.

Brand Asset Audit · 2026-05-25

Where the logos actually live.

Confirmed · in hand

  • MKG · Marker — the bottle & poppy specimen, created by Chilly (2026-05). The only finished brand-asset image in existence. Embedded above.

Likely · need to retrieve

  • BKG cinematic intro — `builders.theknowledgegardens.com/intro` almost certainly contains brand visuals in the React bundle. Open browser DevTools → Network → filter Img/SVG to grab URLs.
  • Local Midjourney downloads — `C:\Users\kmacn\Desktop\TheKnowledgeGardens\` — anything generated and saved from the April 23 prompt run.
  • Midjourney account history — every umbrella / OKG / HKG / BKG / TKG prompt you have ever generated.

Documented · not generated

  • MIDJOURNEY_LOGO_PROMPTS.md — 22 prompts covering umbrella + 4 deployed gardens + Garden Wars + 3 future verticals + 3 frontier samples. Exists in project files. Prompts only — not images.

Recommended · single source of truth

  • Supabase Storage bucket — `brand-assets/` with sub-folders per garden: `brand-assets/umbrella/`, `/okg/`, `/bkg/`, `/hkg/`, `/tkg/`, `/mkg/`, `/nmk/`, `/pkg-parenting/` ... Public read, service-role write.
  • GitHub mirror — `chilly611/knowledge-gardens-brand` repo with the same folder structure for diff-able versioning.
  • Naming convention — `{garden}-{variant}-{size}.{ext}` e.g. `mkg-bottle-poppy-800.jpg`, `okg-seal-primary-512.svg`.

The glyphs throughout this map are interim brand marks — line-art SVGs authored to umbrella spec (Cormorant Garamond + Space Mono + copper accent on bone). They are placeholders, not finished logos. Replacing each with a real generated mark is the single biggest visual improvement available to the platform brand.
