When you think of Detroit, there’s a fairly good chance that burned-out buildings and post-apocalyptic scenarios roll out like so many sugar-plums dancing in your head.

Detroit is America’s next comeback kid, and the city’s design community, much like the Pistons Bad Boys era, is undergoing its very own renaissance. In our City by City series, we’re exploring some of the best branding and packaging design in the world today, and Detroit continues to wow us at every turn.
Here’s just a small sample of the incredible work from this design powerhouse.
