The sun is always enthusiastic. It has symbolic significance such as high spirits, freshness, and growing expectations. The role of the “sun†image on the logo is to represent the core concept of the company’s pioneering, development, and inexhaustible vitality. As a result, it inspires the company’s internal creativity and pioneering spirit to attract numerous consumers to gather around it. And accept it. It is this characteristic of the Sun that has given it the common approval of designers and users.
2. Eyes In ancient cultures, the sun was considered to be the heavenly eye and this "eye". No one in the world dared to look at it. From this, people think that eyes and eyes are also symbols of life, strength and emotion.
Almost all countries' languages ​​have given the eye a special meaning to the word, such as "magic eyes", "deterrence eyes" and so on. People often say that the eyes are the windows of the mind. While we are aware of the world through our eyes, we also let the world enter our hearts through our eyes.
Due to the characteristics of some industries or commodities, the image of the eyes forms a symbolic connection with them, such as optical equipment, television, and photography equipment. In this type of sign, the eye always plays the role of a dominant image. It intuitively conveys product-specific information. However, the eye images in some signs are not directly related to the company or the advertisement itself.

As a supernatural symbolic image, the stars represent hopes for yearning and infinity. People can always see more things in the stars than this natural celestial body itself. People often describe the constellation as an adult, an animal, or an item, and produce a series of prophecies and stories. In ancient astrology, people unconsciously linked their own destinies with the changes in the constellation. The Babylonian astronomy uses stars to explain and interpret the past, present, and future. Just today, people still think that the stars have exerted an influence on their fate.
In modern society, the stars retain important symbolic significance. They are the main symbolic image of expectation; they are universal national wills and military symbolic images, often appearing on national flags and national emblems; they are signs of achievement; the stars are the symbols of quality and grade in commercial exchanges.
- Although the outline of the star is basically a sharp radial angle, rotation, and symmetry, there are a large number of variants in the form of shape, number, and radiance.

Women are an indispensable part of social life. Since ancient times, there have been descriptions of beautiful women in countless myths and legends or in literature and art. The female image is always molded into a beautiful symbol. Its gentleness, kindness, intelligence, and cuteness are the perfect images formed by people's minds in combination with all kinds of beauty. In modern society, the image of women has become more evident as a means of transmitting information to the general public. An orientation and identification - a symbol of good, elegant and eternal youth
There are two basic reasons why female images often appear in logos:

In many special venues today. The function of the hand can be seen everywhere, and it is extremely common for the hand to appear as a symbolic image in the sign.

Therefore, they have special meanings in graphic signs and produce a kind of silence. Tangible, easy-to-recognize and understand language can resonate among people in different countries and different skin colors.
In gesture sign design, most gestures are extremely graphic and have clear meanings. In modern gesture signs, it appears in a casual, extremely natural or extremely exaggerated form.

6. Water Water is colorless and amorphous, reflecting the skylight and flashing. Soft and mysterious, lingering and negative. It wraps, traverses, erodes, infiltrates, adheres to the earth forever and stubbornly, and it prefers to obey gravity or accept any form. Its life without a fixed shape is eternal.
The water is sometimes plentiful and sometimes ferocious, sometimes modest and sometimes quiet. Sometimes it's ridiculously repetitive and pervasive. The various dissimilar characters of this body at the same time make it itself more or less variegated by natural forms, and it is covered with a mysterious gauze.

Eight, heart shape
The heart is one of the body's most important organs. Maintain the circulation of blood and ensure the normal operation of other organs. Once the heart stops beating, it means the loss of human life. This shows the importance of the heart.
