About Our Logo

​

Pae ʻĀina Communications' logo was created by Hawaiʻi-based artist Koloikeao Anthony. 

​

The middle row of triangles comprise a representation of the eight main islands of Hawaiʻi, forming the pae ʻāina or archipelago. These islands are our area of operation, dedication and expertise. 

​

The two bowls that guard the eight islands are representing ʻapu, hoaka or piko. An ʻapu is a coconut cup, often used to share ʻawa, a ceremonial drink used for divine protection and guidance and sharing ideas and knowledge.  A hoaka is a number of things, a moon phase, it also represents brightness, shine, daylight - a reminder to the duality of our work. And a piko refers to the center - in all we do we are centered by these islands, its culture and our want to leave this place a better one for future generations.
