Central Emblem
The focal point of the design is a stylized representation of the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary.

- The year "1789", signifying the Archdiocese's establishment.
- A Latin cross or another religious symbol, representing the Catholic faith and values.
- The official name of the Archdiocese or an abbreviated form.
Color Palette and Style
The color scheme is designed to reflect both the religious context and the heritage of the Archdiocese. Colors might include:
- Shades of white and gold, echoing the traditional colors of the Catholic Church.
- Navy or maroon to create a classic look.
- A muted or distressed effect to create a vintage aesthetic.
The overall style likely aims for a blend of reverence and wearability. The design is intended to be a visual statement that celebrates the historic importance of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Baltimore, conveying a sense of faith, community, and heritage.
