Design rationale

These arms were designed for Jaime Sánchez and his wife, Ana Esteban, combining personal and geographic symbolism. The 1^st and 2^nd quarters represent their surnames. The 3^rd quarter represents Milmarcos through a semé of bezants Or, a canting allusion to its name, interpreted heraldically as «a thousand coins», while the 4^th represents Barcelona, where Jaime was born and the family lives, through a salamander inspired by Park Güell and the work of Antoni Gaudí. The motto «Quid Pro Quo» was chosen by the armigers, while the oak branches symbolise Milmarcos and the rooster crest represents vigilance, renewal, and strength.
