Award Logo


A key element of the graphic identity is the logo showing a row of city buildings in greens and blues. The colours are intended to represent clean air, a green approach to the environment and a positive attitude to city living.

The leaf embracing the city symbolises how candidate cities care for their citizens by improving the environment in which they live. The stars refer to the European Union.

The logo is complemented by a frieze with different plants to be used in all promotional material to create a strong and coherent feel.
