Inspired by the Prime Meridian line embedded in the Royal Observatory’s courtyard, the design features a single strip of aluminium, cut down the middle to represent the Meridian itself and then hand-bent into the university’s unique compass shape.

These awards were designed to bring a sense of motion to a static object.

To enhance the design, we then added a steel casing with a patina finish, echoing the festival’s vibrant “spectrum of colour” brand identity.
