About Amazon Web Services (AWS)

Lowercase, dark-slate sans-serif letters spelling “aws” sit centered above a single, thick curved swoosh that tapers to an arrowhead at the right. The swoosh is a bright orange and traces a gentle upward curve that resembles a smile under the wordmark.

The composition is flat and two-toned with generous letter spacing and rounded terminals on the characters. The arrowhead at the end of the orange curve gives the element a sense of forward motion while visually linking the mark to a smiling motif.
