bruce goodName Your Hood is an interactive campaign to unearth creative and functional neighbourhood names for South Africa’s iconic cities. Inviting city lovers to generate names for the neighbourhoods in which they live, work and play. Igniting community spirit and pride through a democratic process. Where New York has SoHo and TriBeCa, London has Mayfair and Chelsea, Cape Town simply has ‘Town’, a vague designation for the CBD or the City Bowl. Name Your Hood is changing that. |
