The story of our Symbol

Our logo is the ensō from a practice of Japanese ink painting, used as a tool to express personal, mental, and spiritual balance. Drawn in one motion, the open circle embodies mindfulness and the beauty of imperfection. Representing the circle of life, drawn in one fluid stroke to capture a specific moment in time, the uneveness of the circle reflecting the reality of life. We liken the synergies of the ensō to life, enlightenment, connectedness, and the beauty of our imperfections which are celebrated and enjoyed by those left behind.
