Firstly, the name Sauvage is a French term meaning “wild” or “natural”. Often used in the wine industry speaking of an animalistic characteristic found in the wine or referring to spontaneous fermentation with wild indigenous yeast. This word makes me feel free, it lends to the ability to let myself create without the noise of what the outside world deems as acceptable or normal. It makes me feel primal, like I need to get back to what’s natural, be connected to the earth, & lean on resources that showcase mother Gaia.

 

🍍Naturally we chose a pineapple as our symbol which represents warmth, hospitality & friendship. A reminder to us of the mission behind the food, drinks, & entertainment we serve.

 

💮Within the pineapple you’ll notice the pointy edges have been changed to a circular pattern called the flower of life. The sacred geometric shape of Flower of Life is a symbol of creation & the interconnectedness of all things. It can also represent the circular relationship between humans, technology, & nature. UNITY.

 

The pineapple leaves are the lotus flower. The lotus flower has many positive meanings across cultures & religions, where do I begin? 

 

💟Purity

The lotus flower can rise from muddy water without becoming stained, symbolizing the ability to maintain integrity & ideals in the face of adversity.

 

🐦‍🔥Rebirth

The lotus flower's cyclical nature, from bud to bloom to retreat, represents rebirth & renewal.

 

💪Strength

The lotus flower returns to the murky water each evening & opens its blooms at the break of day, symbolizing strength & resilience.

 

💫Transcendence

The lotus flower blooms from the underworld into the light, representing the transcending of man's spirit over worldly matter.

 

🪷Spiritual enlightenment

In Buddhism, the lotus flower is associated with Buddha himself, who rose pure & untouched by the negative aspects of the world.

 

💋Beauty

The lotus flower's delicate petals emerging from murky waters remind us that beauty is possible even in the darkest of places.

 

🧧In Hinduism, the lotus flower is associated with the goddesses Lakshmi & Vishnu, & represents spiritual enlightenment, beauty, fertility, purity, prosperity, & eternity.

 

“Just like the lotus we too have the ability to rise from the mud, bloom out of the darkness & radiate into the world.”

 

💚Nature

Green is the color of nature and can evoke feelings of balance, harmony, and growth.

 

💛Generosity & compassion

Gold can encourage generosity & compassion, & motivate people to share their knowledge & wealth with others.

 

So, I hope that when you see our logo, you feel a deep inspiration inside you to let go of everything that no longer serves you. I hope you feel the urge inside you to move with the wind, be wild, dive deep into your darkest shadows to uncover the light, evolve into the greatest you that you’ve always known existed. I hope you find connection in every beautiful experience & person & animal that you come in contact with. But most importantly I hope you FEEL SAUVAGE. 🐆
