The logo of the Foundation is a very stylised depiction of a human being whose arms are raised so as to hold or embrace, symbolically, the animal world, which is represented by two creatures, one which could be a bird or fish and the other a land animal.
This logo concept is at the same time very "corporate", and also very dynamic and representative of love, caring, compassion and responsibility.
The colour of the logo is in Pantone blue. Blue conveys coolness and calmness. It is an ecological colour (sky & water). Finally blue is the colour of hope.
Below the logo are the words "Love All Life" in a grey rectangle. Underlining that is the name of the Foundation in Bahasa Malaysia and English in black letters.
