The Figures: A detailed rendering of the statues from the official city seal. One figure weeps for the destruction of the Great 1805 Fire, while the other offers comfort and points toward a resilient future.
The Flag Matrix Sphere: The background incorporates the entire Detroit City Flag, seamlessly weaving the the countries that have controlled the territory into a deconstructed sphere pattern.
The Foundation: The figures are set against a dramatic cloud layer featuring polished Roman numerals for 1805 (MDCCCV), marking the pivotal year the city was redefined.
The Motto: Arcing above the design is Detroit's legendary Latin motto: Speramus Meliora; Resurget Cineribus — "We hope for better things; it shall rise from the ashes."
