Our logo has been designed by our dear friend and fellow member Xavier Diverres, in the early days of Hackuarium.
Not fancying himself as a graphic designer (he prefers interactions), Xavier made a pretty good job nonetheless! Xavier is also a coworker at UniverCité.

Concept
We wanted a water-based animal to play with the words Hackuarium / Aquarium, the octopus was chosen because he can grabs many things, the octopus is also an animal with a distributed brain: each tentacle has an independent brain, still the octopus acts as a single organism. This represents well the spirit of our community.
