Earlier this year, the WCUS organizers put out the call for concepts for the very first national WordCamp US and Creative Director, Michael J. Chevalier, and the Linchpin team, stepped up with the winning idea. Working with the organizers and volunteers, Linchpin is donating its time and efforts in creating the logo mark, website design and other digital and print collateral.

The WordCamp US 2015 design pays tribute to host-city Philadelphia’s rich boxing heritage. Philly was the hometown of boxer “Smokin’ Joe” Frazier and the setting for the movie Rocky. Using this history as his starting point, Michael explains “The concept is based on the look and feel of old-time boxing posters: one or two colors, weathered and worn around the edges.”

Michael, who is also a Principal of Linchpin, and President Aaron Ware both appreciate being part of an open source community. With the help of the their team they give back by organizing their local Meetups and WordCamps.

In the spirit of open source they are releasing the CSS and HTML magic used to create the digital boxing poster that serves as the WCUS home page along with all the creative assets.

View the code on CodePen and download all the assets on Dribbble. Have some fun and create your own digital posters. And you can help spread the word by sharing your masterpiece to Twitter with #WCUS.
