I won an award!

In January 2023 I won an award for one of my logo designs. 

Awards are something of a sticking point in my industry. A lot of design agencies refuse to enter awards, usually because they cost an arm and a leg to enter. And if you get nominated you’ll often have to buy an expensive ticket or a table to an awards ceremony.

However, I was recently referred to an award, specifically for logo designers, that is inexpensive to enter, but is still judged by industry figureheads (so if you win it still feels like a big deal).

It’s called the Logo Wave, and six months prior I submitted a few of my logo projects.

The award is judged in ‘waves’ with the top 5 logos for each wave receiving the Logo Wave award, and I was lucky enough to scrape in 5th with my logo for Uncle Jessy. This particular wave was judged by some pretty impressive industry names, including Jacob Cass (Just Creative), Bill Gardner (Logo Lounge) and Jeroen van Eerden.

You can find my entry here, as well as the entire project for Uncle Jessy here.
