GOOD points to a new project that's trying to create and collect city logos for every city on the planet.
The project is called CitiD, and it's asking designers to submit their logos for cities.
"So far they have submissions from cities on every continent, but there are still lots of countries that don't have any cities represented. They're looking for their first contributions from Fiji, Finland, and French Guiana, to name just a few. The ultimate goal: To have a logo for every city on the planet. Every single one. And, of course, to celebrate the unique identities of our municipalities and metropolises."
