Douglas County Seal Concept Shape: Circular (classic seal style) with a clean, modern outline. Elements: Foreground: Golden wheat fields (bottom third) fading into orchard rows (apples/cherries) on one side. Columbia River (blue ribbon) cutting diagonally across the center, with a subtle abstract dam (Chief Joseph Dam) symbolized by stacked lines/energy waves. Background: Sagebrush steppe (soft green/gray hills) under an open sky. Sunrise (top edge) with rays doubling as electricity pulses (nod to hydro power). Border Text: Upper arc: "DOUGLAS COUNTY, WASHINGTON" (bold, sans-serif). Lower arc: "EST. 1883" (smaller, beneath wheat motif). Color Palette: Gold (wheat), Green (orchards/hills), Blue (river), Red/Orange (sunrise). Black-and-white version: Replace colors with gradients/shading for contrast. Symbolism: River + Dam: Energy, ecology, and transportation. Wheat + Fruit: Agricultural roots. Sunrise: Progress and community resilience. See more
