The logo represents the combination of old and new, creativity, team work, innovation, sense of community, and leadership.

PLAY's logo is a wreath of eight colors, with none of them being the traditional seven colors of the visible spectrum or the three primary colors of the color wheel: red, blue, and yellow. Instead, the colors of the logo are built of various combinations of the primary colors. This symbolizes a blend of tradition and innovation, much like the youth of America from immigrant families. These colors also represent originality and creativity, traits valued in many fields. The wreath itself symbolizes team work, which is a necessity in becoming a leader.

As for the peculiar shape of the octagon in the center, the octagon shape is a symbolic architectural theme representing regeneration, rebirth, and renewal. For example, an octagonal house consumes light and heat more efficiently and withstands natural disasters better than traditional houses, demonstrating innovation and energy renewal. Octagons are also a symbolic theme in a variety of religions such as Buddhism, Judaism, Taoism, and Christianity. Octagons bring people of various cultures and religions together, much like PLAY's mission to raise political awareness and instill a sense of community engagement in youth of all ages and backgrounds.

The three people in the middle represent leaders, and 2014 is the year that PLAY Club was founded.
