About University of Malaya, Malaysia

A heraldic shield sits to the left of a two-line serif wordmark. The shield is deep blue/purple with a narrow yellow banner across its top; inside the shield are two small, mirror-image stylised animal figures in yellow and a red floral or rose-like device toward the lower centre. A small orange/gold element sits at the shield’s apex.

To the right, the institution name appears in an all-caps, dark navy serif typeface set on two lines: the larger line reads “UNIVERSITI” above “MALAYA”. A thin red rule separates the wordmark from a much smaller blue location line beneath (reads “KUALA LUMPUR”). The overall look is formal and heraldic, combining emblematic detail with a strong typographic wordmark.
