The top of the triangle represented the Kinsey scale and the bottom point expanding the line to include asexuality.
[15] The AVEN triangle would remain the primary symbol of asexuality, with some minor aesthetic changes.
An alternate symbol was a half-filled heart, however, many aromantic asexuals criticized it as being unrepresentative due to it implying romantic attraction.
The winning design was made up of four equally-sized horizontal stripes in black, gray, white, and purple, the colors of the AVEN triangle, designed to match other pride flags with horizontal stripes.
[6] The black is to represent strict asexuality, while the gray is for demisexuals and grayasexuals, the white for allosexual allies, and the purple for the community.
