For its fans, the orange and purple color symbolizes Ubuntu. + +In addition to that, Ubuntu has logo that consists of a wordmark (ubuntu written in text) and a graphic symbol in orange color. + +![Ubuntu’s old logo][1] + +This orange ‘circle of friends’ is the identity of Ubuntu brand. It represents; freedom, collaboration, precision and reliability. + +It’s actually the top view of a ‘huddle’ of three friends or team members. You may have seen such a huddle in sports. + +![Image courtesy: Unsplash][2] + +### Ubuntu has a brand new logo + +But this is changing. As [OMG! Ubuntu][3] reported, Canonical has rebranded both the elements of logo, wordmark and the circle of friends. + +In the old logo, the circle of friends was on the top right corner of the Ubuntu written in bold text. + +The new logo changes that. The circle of friend is redesigned to make look smoother and it is placed on an orange column. The wordmark is also changed and uses a thinner font now. The U in Ubuntu is now in uppercase. + +Interestingly, the small registered trademark symbol ® is no longer the part of the new logo. + +![][4] + +Ubuntu noted [this][5] on the new design in the official blog post: + +> While it is important to have a respectful continuity with the previous Circle of Friends, the updated version is leaner, more focused, more sophisticated. It also makes a little more sense that the heads are now inside the circle, facing each other and connecting more directly. + +You can see the animation of the new logo in this video: + +![][6] + +This new design will be part of the upcoming Ubuntu 22.04 release. + +### Not the first rebranding + +This is not the first time Ubuntu has been rebranded. When Ubuntu project was first created in the year 2004, the circle of friend had three colors; yellow, red and orange. It was redesigned in 2010 with the huddle in white and an orange circle around it. + +![Image courtesy: OMG! Ubuntu][7] + +### Do you like the new logo? + +The redesign comes thirteen years after the last one. While the new ‘circle’ looks good, I find the background rectangle a bit weird. + +How about you? Do you like the new Ubuntu logo or you still love the old one?
