The city of Amarillo unveiled their new logo this week. The logo was approved by the city council, and designed by Tyler Mitchell according to a recent article in the Amarillo Globe-News.
Previous efforts to create a new logo, resulted in a similarity to an overseas company. During the city council meeting, attorney Chris Stewart described the vetting process to ensure originality of the new
design.
AGN Media held an online contest to facilitate the new work. A committee of five, including members from Amarillo College and West Texas A&M University, chose the winner.
Tyler Mitchell attended the meeting Tuesday. He received a $500 gift card from an AGN Media advertiser and a $1,000 from Roaster’s Coffee & Tea.
