custom trophy & award designs
These are trophies and awards that have been created for specific events, themes and/or corporate branding. These designs are completely unique and we worked closely with the client to create an award that delivered on the project objectives. A custom design is a great idea for those who have the time and would like to award their recipients with something totally original.
