O-finity: Forever Connected

Our logo features two interlocking “O”s forming an infinity symbol — a bold mark of connection, community, and endless pride.

The O's stand for Our Ōtara — our people, our place, our purpose.

The infinity symbol represents unbreakable bonds and a future that carries our legacy forward.

Together, they tell a story of unity, strength, and aroha that lives on in every piece we create.

This is more than a logo — it’s our symbol of forever.

Our Ōtara. Forever Connected.
