Design to the Rescue! Earlier this year we revealed the Designed in USA brand certification logomark to the Core77 community. Unsurprisingly, opinions were wide-ranging and passionate.

Designers, ask and you shall receive! Here's your chance to turn your opinions into action!

Between now and midnight PDT Sunday, June 3rd, 2012 designers are invited to submit your redesign of the DESIGNED IN USA Logomark. Entries will be judged by the editorial department of Core77 and the Creative Team of RKS, and the three best will be determined and revealed. Winning designs will then be added to the website for download and use by the design and business community. Designs will be judged on the basis of creativity, appropriateness, applicability, and iconic potential. Good luck!
