The use of dove symbols in logo designs has a rich and diverse background that spans cultures and time. The dove is a universally recognized symbol that has been associated with various meanings, including peace, purity, love, hope, and spirituality.

The origins of the dove symbol can be traced back to ancient civilizations. In ancient Greece and Rome, the dove was associated with the goddess of love, Aphrodite/Venus. It was seen as a symbol of love, beauty, and fertility. The dove's association with purity is evident in ancient Greek mythology, where it was believed to be a sacred bird associated with the goddess of love, Aphrodite, and the goddess of beauty and wisdom, Athena.

In logo design, the dove symbol has been utilized to convey a range of concepts and values. Its association with peace, purity, love, and spirituality makes it a popular choice for organizations that aim to communicate these ideals. The simplicity and elegance of the dove's form make it a visually appealing element that can be stylized and abstracted to create versatile and impactful logo compositions.

Many brands, organizations, and movements have used dove symbols in their logo designs to convey messages of peace, unity, love, and spirituality. It is important to note that the specific interpretation and meaning of the dove symbol in logo design may vary depending on the context and cultural background. Different cultures and religions may attribute distinct symbolic associations to the dove, which could influence the way the symbol is understood.

Or, you can make your white dove look different by adding an olive branch next to the dove, not on its beak. You can also add some other objects like a hand and a star. White will be the best color for those objects on your logo. Pick a darker color for the background, like charcoal gray.
