Olympic Spirit - Present in the triangular texture, reflecting the three Olympic values (excellence, friendship and respect), and in the segment floating effect, inspired by the bodies of athletes flying through the air.
Contagious Energy - The segments open up and release energy for the moment of the kiss (when the flame passes from one torch to another).
Exuberant Nature - Profiles reveal the organic shapes of Rio’s nature and Brazil’s colors.

The cauldron proper takes the form of a
pot; as part of the organizers’ focus on preventing global warming, it
was designed to have low emissions and produce a smaller volume of flame
than previous cauldrons.
The flame is accompanied by a circular kinetic
sculpture by Anthony Howe representing the sun, with the spirals
representing life.
