The Coconino County Attorney鈥檚 Office debuted a new logo and seal on Friday, May 23, created in partnership with Northern Arizona University鈥檚 VisualDESIGNLab.
鈥淲e wanted something that truly represented who we are as an office, and a community,鈥� County Attorney Ammon Barker stated in a press release. 鈥淥ur new logo and seal tell that story. They reflect our landscape, our history and our shared commitment to justice and service.鈥�
The new design features the clock tower of the historic county courthouse, the San Francisco Peaks and sun rays, all rendered in contrasting blue and white. According to the office鈥檚 announcement, those design elements are intended to symbolize 鈥渢he heart of the justice system,鈥� northern Arizona鈥檚 鈥渄iverse geography鈥� and 鈥渉ope, renewal and the possibility of a brighter future,鈥� respectively.
The office鈥檚 old seal was a six-pointed star inside a circle, with the Great Seal of the State of Arizona at the middle -- very similar to the badge of the Coconino County Sheriff鈥檚 Office. The attorney鈥檚 office said that the new logo 鈥渙ffers a bold, modern look while preserving the professionalism expected of a public legal office.鈥�
The VisualDESIGNLab (VDL) offers undergraduate design students a chance to gain real-world experience through collaboration with local partners.
VDL created the current logo for Coconino County, among numerous other brand-identity projects. VDL also created concepts for a new City of Flagstaff logo and seal, but that plan hit a snag when the current city council declined to move forward with the redesign in April.
The attorney鈥檚 office will transition to the new design on official materials, including letterhead, business cards and public communications, over the coming weeks. Additional information about the聽Coconino County Attorney鈥檚 Office聽is available at .
