The Oregonian newspaper sponsored a contest to redesign the state flag in time for Oregon's 150th birthday. The designs were successful, the effort to change the flag was not. This study delivers a dozen important lessons learned.
Utah's state flag is generally indistinguishable from half of all American state flags. The Salt Lake Tribune polled readers and NAVA helped organize the search for a new flag. The winning design was #25.
The Kansas City Star asked NAVA to help with a contest to design a new flag for a city with a record number of previous designs. The winning design was #18.
