Welcome back to the Creative Awards London blog where we showcase the very best in design and custom made awards. In today's entry we will look at one of our most iconic pieces of work that encapsulate the very best of what we do.

The IP Global Award is unique in the sense that all of our teams worked on the award from the designing and production of the figurine and base to the intricate silver work required to form the cage that envelops the central gold ball. Usually, and depending on the award, not all of our teams are required to work on a piece simply because not all awards require the talents of all of our team members at once.

This unique piece of design was commissioned especially by the leading property investment firm IP Global who approached Creative Awards London to produce a one of a kind award to be given to employees. To celebrate the achievements of the firm we decided to focus on exploring the brand and its history to combine the elements that encapsulate the company.

Strength, reassurance and expertise were just a few of the concepts that we associated with the brand and were used to form the backbone to the design. We choose to use the central theme of strength and security by choosing a kneeling Atlas figurine to represent this. The figurine was hand cast from a specially created mould and finished in elegant silver for a timeless and classic look. Mounted onto a custom made black base, the contrast between light and dark as well as textured and smooth elements started to take shape as the award came together.

To enhance the award we took the central concept of a globally recognised business and created a metal spherical cage to house a metal, textured gold ball. Our resident silversmith, with a background in fine jewellery, painstakingly hand crafted the spherical cage that needed to be in exact proportions to ensure the aesthetic was carried through.

Once this fine bit of work was finished the cage and enclosed ball were mounted onto the figurine and black, custom made base. To finish the award, details of the company and the winner's information was hand engraved onto silver plaques that were then applied to the base.
