The places that made us.

A working visual language for preserving South Orange history through archives, education, advocacy, and community memory.

01 · Palette

A palette with a civic pulse.

Gold and black carry the emblem's authority. Parchment makes room for reading. Terracotta is reserved for moments that ask people to act.

02 · Type

Crafted headlines. Clear actions.
