View network →About NEWC
One identity. Several generations.
NEWCOMMNET and NEWC have carried the same core idea through different versions of the web: practical communications information and community infrastructure for the region. The modern design deliberately combines the technical, dark, high-contrast character of the older material with the cleaner network-dashboard feel of the current Upper Meshigan concept.
