1. Choose a Paper Stock or Durable Foil
The award that is most likely to be used over and over again is one that is made of solid-colored paper stock. A crisp white award with a beautiful gold or silver foil background will definitely be noticed and remembered, even if the winner has received it two years in a row! Choose solid colors (with at least one accent color) that are complementary to your theme; also, choose colors that contrast well wiath your theme so they can stand out more.
2. Give The Award a Unique Shape
Award recipients love to receive trophies in the shapes of the things that they love and do. For example, if someone loves sports, you can give them something in the shape of a baseball or basketball. If they love to fish, consider giving them an award shaped like a fish! This will make your awards stand out because no one else will have chosen such an unusual shape. Plus, it will be unique and memorable!
3. Use Your Award to Add Logo-Themed Accessories
If you want to add a logo-themed touch, the best way is to use an accessory. For example, you can use a trophy base and add your logo-themed trophies on top of them. In fact, if you do not want to make your award any larger than it needs to be, this is a great idea because the base will help keep the awards stable and upright. Another option is to use your logo as silkscreening or embroidery on the front of the awards. You may also consider using a fabric with your logo on it as an accent color and placing that around the award. When it comes to employee service awards, this is a great idea to show the logo of the company and also show that it is an employee award.
4. Add a Logoed Medal for Award Decoration
As you will notice, we have used the word “decoration” in this tip. This is because we don’t want you to add too much hardware to your award. A nice medal that dangles on the front of the award, or a gold-plated star pin in the center top, is a great idea. In fact, you may place your company logo right on this decoration as well if you feel it will not be too much for your design. Another idea is to look into what fastening devices you can use to secure medals to awards. These devices are also available in gold and silver finish options and in a variety of styles.
5. Center the Award Design
You can add your company’s logo or the theme of your awards by using this tip. Simply center the design on the award and then place a small border around it. This technique will not only add color to your award but will also draw attention as soon as you look at it. By placing a large logo on the front of your award, you will be able to personalize each award with a truly unique design. Make sure you choose the right size award to accommodate all of your information.
6. Choose a Metal or Accent Color That Compliments Your Theme
If you want all of your awards to be in the same color or color family, it is a good idea to choose one accent color and then use that for the metal and accents on every award. Doing this will give every award in your design a similar appearance, which is always nice if you are giving out several awards. It may also be a nice idea to choose a color that complements your theme but does not match exactly. For example, red and gold would be a great accent color for an award with a business theme, but if you also wanted to incorporate your logo into the design, choosing another color that is slightly patriotic or traditional would work well.
In conclusion, the above tips can provide you with some great ideas for incorporating a logo and theme into a unique award. If you are interested in including your logo on the award, it is important that you find a design that is appropriate for your business or organization. Use these tips as a starting point, and then try to determine what will work best for you.
