SETsquared Awards
Laminated Birch and Aluminium Trophies for Innovation and Impact
These distinctive bespoke trophies were created for the SETsquared Partnership Awards, celebrating outstanding achievements across innovation, enterprise, and research excellence from the universities of Bristol, Exeter, Southampton, Surrey, and Bath.
Each award block is constructed from laminated birch plywood, giving a warm, tactile feel and modern layered aesthetic. A precision-formed folded aluminium faceplate wraps around the surface, laser-engraved with category names and winner details. The addition of a bold blue acrylic base adds a striking contrast and reinforces the brand’s tech-forward identity.
These custom university awards were designed to honour categories like Achievement, Impact, Resilience, and Best New Initiative — all with a clean, minimal look that reflects both innovation and prestige.
