Last but not least, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/bayardomartinez\">Bayardo Mart\u00ednez<\/a>, Strategic Designer, with 12+ years of experience in comprehensive brand development, art direction, creative writing and drinking coffee.<\/p>\n<p>The mission of the team was to design a logo that could represent the identity of the entire region and its community; with visual elements, typography and colors, that could easily be customized to identify the host city of future editions of WordCamp Centroam\u00e9rica.<\/p>\n<h2>Early inspiration<\/h2>\n<p>The Central American region is rich in flora, fauna and ancestral cultures. These elements are repeated constantly in the seven countries that are part of the region: Belize, Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica and Panam\u00e1.<\/p>\n<p>The decision was made to collect graphic elements of these characteristic features in common, so that they could be used in the logo of the first WordCamp Centroam\u00e9rica.<\/p>\n<p>The visual elements that were used to form the logo were the following:<\/p>\n<p>Birds &#8211; Indigenous culture &#8211; Flora<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-254 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/2020.centroamerica.wordcamp.org\/files\/2020\/01\/azulejos-1024x555-1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"555\" srcset=\"https:\/\/centroamerica.wordcamp.org\/2020\/files\/2020\/01\/azulejos-1024x555-1.png 1024w, https:\/\/centroamerica.wordcamp.org\/2020\/files\/2020\/01\/azulejos-1024x555-1-300x163.png 300w, https:\/\/centroamerica.wordcamp.org\/2020\/files\/2020\/01\/azulejos-1024x555-1-768x416.png 768w, https:\/\/centroamerica.wordcamp.org\/2020\/files\/2020\/01\/azulejos-1024x555-1-500x271.png 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The birds that inspired the creation of the logo were the national birds for each Central American country: the Toucan from Belize; the Quetzal from Guatemala; the Turquoise-browed Motmot from El Salvador and Nicaragua; the Scarlet Macaw from Honduras; the Clay-colored Thrush from Costa Rica and the Harpy Eagle from Panam\u00e1.<\/p>\n<p>The culture of the ethnic groups of Central America is highly influenced by the Mayans, which was a relevant point for the WordCamp Centroam\u00e9rica logo. It should be noted that each country had the presence of specific groups.<\/p>\n<p>In Belize, it was the Garifuna; in Costa Rica the Malekus; in El Salvador the Nahuat-Pipil, in Guatemala, the Mayas; in Honduras the Lencas; in Nicaragua the Niquiranos and in Panama the Ember\u00e1.<\/p>\n<p>Another inspirational element was the flora of the region. We took references from the floral emblem of each country: the Black Orchid from Belize, the Monja Blanca orchid from Guatemala; Flor de Izote from El Salvador; the Orchid from Honduras; the Plumeria (Sacuanjoche) from Nicaragua; the Guaria Morada orchid from Costa Rica and the Flor del Esp\u00edritu Santo orchid from Panam\u00e1.<\/p>\n<h2>Integrating all elements<\/h2>\n<p>One of the biggest challenges, while integrating all these elements, was to find a way to showcase the union of all our countries which in the end would give us the guideline to be able to continue with the creative process.<\/p>\n<p>The use of this empirical creative method also helped us to create certain pathways, in order to showcase that we were previously a unified social and political entity.<\/p>\n<p>One of the most important values \u200b\u200bfor creating the logo was the belief of being countries with a magical and colorful touch. These patterns are present in each country, from Belize to Panama, particularly in our roots, that shows where we come from.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_261\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-261\" style=\"width: 512px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-261 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/2020.centroamerica.wordcamp.org\/files\/2020\/01\/logo-inical.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"512\" height=\"272\" srcset=\"https:\/\/centroamerica.wordcamp.org\/2020\/files\/2020\/01\/logo-inical.png 512w, https:\/\/centroamerica.wordcamp.org\/2020\/files\/2020\/01\/logo-inical-300x159.png 300w, https:\/\/centroamerica.wordcamp.org\/2020\/files\/2020\/01\/logo-inical-500x266.png 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 512px) 100vw, 512px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-261\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">First round of logo drafts<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2>Our core identity<\/h2>\n<h3>Creating experience and meaning<\/h3>\n<p>We tried to use our national flora, our beautiful birds that live within the Central American region, as well as our ancestors who have left a great legacy throughout history.

As mentioned previously, the petal in the center is highlighted as the color of the host country for each edition of the event.<\/p>\n<p>Yellow represents the vibrant Guatemala, it was selected as a strong and characteristic color of the City of Antigua Guatemala. Also, for the happiness, joy and generosity of its people.<\/p>\n<p>Red was given to exotic Costa Rica, for two main reasons. One of them, for being a distinctive color in the traditional costume and the national flag. Second, representing the fight for freedom and the love of life.<\/p>\n<p>The turquoise was assigned to Belize, for its majestic turquoise waters. And they represent the natural, relaxing and engulfing beauty of its landscapes.<\/p>\n<p>Dark blue was awarded to Nicaragua, as it is a country where lakes and seas predominate. Likewise, it reflects the freedom and loyalty of the Nicaraguan people.<\/p>\n<p>The pink is the color of the flower of the Maquilishuat, a main symbol of El Salvador. In the same way it represents the kindness, dedication and generosity of the Salvadoran people.<\/p>\n<p>The light blue belongs to Panama for being one of the countries that strive every day to undertake new ventures. Its wonderful Canal that connects with the two main oceans: the Atlantic and the Pacific, that union that represents serenity and responsibility.<\/p>\n<p>Honduras is of course represented by the orange color that reminds us of the simplicity, warmth and vivacity of the Honduran people, that leads them to be stronger every day.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-258 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/2020.centroamerica.wordcamp.org\/files\/2020\/01\/brand_board-1024x697-1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"697\" srcset=\"https:\/\/centroamerica.wordcamp.org\/2020\/files\/2020\/01\/brand_board-1024x697-1.png 1024w, https:\/\/centroamerica.wordcamp.org\/2020\/files\/2020\/01\/brand_board-1024x697-1-300x204.png 300w, https:\/\/centroamerica.wordcamp.org\/2020\/files\/2020\/01\/brand_board-1024x697-1-768x523.png 768w, https:\/\/centroamerica.wordcamp.org\/2020\/files\/2020\/01\/brand_board-1024x697-1-441x300.png 441w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><b>Our future: Let\u2019s continue making history<\/b><\/h2>\n<p>We will follow the timeline as the years go by, with the different variations that our logo can have for future WordCamps:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-257 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/2020.centroamerica.wordcamp.org\/files\/2020\/01\/wcca-ediciones-futuras.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1600\" height=\"623\" srcset=\"https:\/\/centroamerica.wordcamp.org\/2020\/files\/2020\/01\/wcca-ediciones-futuras.png 1600w, https:\/\/centroamerica.wordcamp.org\/2020\/files\/2020\/01\/wcca-ediciones-futuras-300x117.png 300w, https:\/\/centroamerica.wordcamp.org\/2020\/files\/2020\/01\/wcca-ediciones-futuras-1024x399.png 1024w, https:\/\/centroamerica.wordcamp.org\/2020\/files\/2020\/01\/wcca-ediciones-futuras-768x299.png 768w, https:\/\/centroamerica.wordcamp.org\/2020\/files\/2020\/01\/wcca-ediciones-futuras-500x195.png 500w, https:\/\/centroamerica.wordcamp.org\/2020\/files\/2020\/01\/wcca-ediciones-futuras-1536x598.png 1536w, https:\/\/centroamerica.wordcamp.org\/2020\/files\/2020\/01\/wcca-ediciones-futuras-1200x467.png 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Excited to begin a new era<\/h2>\n<p>We are very happy to have explored the features that made us feel unique.
