Griffith University has been a valued, long-term client of ours. Over the years, we have had the privilege of designing awards for their prestigious alumni event. However, this year, the Griffith team approached us with a request to infuse their refreshed branding and event collateral into the design.
The primary aim of these alumni awards is to honour the outstanding achievements of Griffith’s alumni. It’s a platform to recognize the diverse accomplishments of these alumni, spanning a wide range of fields and their contributions to their communities.
For this year’s event, the branding incorporated Griffith’s signature red colour, but with a unique twist—a red sparkle design. This distinctive element was used in various aspects of the event, from the event webpage to email signatures and other promotional materials. The design team made the creative choice to extend this branding feature to the awards themselves.
Each award featured transparent red and white circles printed across multiple acrylic layers. This intricate design produced a captivating 3D effect that added a new dimension to the awards. A clear acrylic window was strategically placed on the back of each trophy. This thoughtful touch allowed natural light to pass through, introducing an additional layer of depth and enhancing the overall aesthetic.
To bring the design to life, our in-house joinery team skilfully hand finished the awards, providing a high-quality timber finish. The award details were laser-etched onto the body, ensuring precision and clarity.
