Dezeen Award Trophy
— A London Brick
In our work, we often try to amplify the stories natural resources tell about a place. London clay is emblematic of the city as it is not only the ground the city was built upon but also the material it is made of. The typical yellow brick houses define the historic cityscape and speak of the long tradition of brickmaking with clay from the London basin. To make these authentic trophies we collaborated with the Smeed Dean Brick Factory. Apart from using our custom mould, the production process of a trophy is identical to the one of any other brick.
The trophies come with a wooden presentation box. A metal plaque that serves as a base of the trophy when it is on display carries the details of the winning project, studio and category. It was made in collaboration with the graphic design studio HeyHeydeHaas.
