           The Scottish Legal Awards

The Scottish Legal Awards were in their second year when we started working on an improved version of their identity.

We created the eagle icon to add a distinctive and relevant image to the brand. We wanted to render the eagle as if drawn from a quill pen. To appear light but dynamic. The concept for the website and literature came from the wide left margin in old handwritten Scots legal documents where specific information and notes would be made where they would start writing against the vertical line. The colour palette was derived from the the red of the stamp seal used on the historical documents and a complimentary gold to refer to competition first place.

Although there has been a change in agency that have seen modifications to the brand the eagle design has remained intact as the visual icon of the awards. It is still used in its publicity, ceremony and on the awards themselves.
