COSI Group unveils new international brand: NUMA

• NUMA’s vision: Bring Some Soul to Travel
• New brand’s visual identity puts people and emotion at the forefront
• Brand strategy developed together with KOTO, London

Berlin / Madrid, July 6, 2021 – COSI Group, Germany's leading provider of short-term rentals using smart technology and driver of the new asset class Commercial Living, is giving its organization a new name. Effective immediately, the Group's new international corporate brand is NUMA (www.numastays.com). NUMA's brand strategy was developed alongside KOTO, London who convinced with their work for Airbnb, Uber, and Nike.

The symbol and trademark of NUMA is the new logo. It is modern, clear, and concise. Reduced to its essential components, it can be used flexibly and is excellently recognizable in digital as well as traditional media.

The new brand language has evolved from how COSI has presented itself so far - it will be bolder and more colorful representing the industry maverick NUMA is. NUMA's new communication is based on four leading principles: "Undeniably personal", "Unquestionably confident", "Unusually simple" and "Unlike other stars". People and emotions come even more to the forefront. The feeling of comfort, convenience, and delight of design are in focus. In the future, the center will be depicting authentic situations in which guests simply feel good and find themselves.

Inga Svinhufvud Laudiero, Chief Creative Officer co-founder of NUMA Group, explains: “Under the guiding principle 'Bring Some Soul to Travel' we have created a new overall brand experience with NUMA on all channels and across all touchpoints. In a world of buttoned up, faceless hotels, we’re building a new way. We’re replacing the unnecessary fuss with simplicity and delight. Stirring technology and taste together in the world’s greatest neighborhoods, we create stays that are unashamedly original, and that match how people feel when they travel.” 

With the new international brand, the NUMA Group moves ahead on its growth trajectory. The company focuses on hotel and commercial properties in central locations in major European cities. NUMA targets lively neighborhoods and main demand drivers, building a new way of hospitality matching how people today travel. With demand drivers not only being tourism and business but rather catering to an extension of our guests daily life; designing locations where guests can stay for longer. For example, outside Germany and Austria, NUMA has already secured properties in Madrid's "Plaza de las Cortes" and Barcelona's iconic Eixample district. Further international projects across several major destinations are already in advanced negotiations.

NUMA offers landlords the security of having a professional operator with a strong track record and a sustainable business model backed by reputable investors. By leveraging on its innovative technology solutions, NUMA reduces operational costs and delivers a superior guest experience – stays with soul.
