Create a wordmark for your hometown!

Using the tips provided in this class, share 1-3 type graphics for the name of your hometown. Bonus points if you share the wordmark mocked up on a piece of merchandise. Bonus bonus points if you actually get that piece of merch made!

Things to consider:

What does existing merchandise from your hometown look like? How can yours be cooler?
Are there any typefaces or graphic styles that would be appropriate for your hometown?
If you are placing your wordmark on a promotional item, how can you create a graphic that is tailored to the layout of the item?
