Hawks are known for their sharp vision and keen observation skills. They have this incredible ability to spot even the tiniest details from up above. That said, a hawk logo implies that a company or organization is about having a keen eye for detail and being observant. They’re also known for their swift flight and precise movements, representing quick, agile, and responsive brands.

An open book is the best symbol for your logo if you own a bookstore. But you can reimagine that and give your logo a unique look like this one from Hawk Readers. It shows an open book; instead, pages of the book appear on the hawk’s flapping wings.

Another thing to note here is the color palette. The progression from white to black was a clever choice. It provides a contrast from what is the hawk’s wing to book pages.

And that’s the case for HWK Clothing Line. The pictorial mark would be perfect as a small website icon and or added to a clothing tag.

Like the HawKEY Locksmith logo, they use a contrasting motif that will easily grab people’s attention.
