Shine School Media Awards

We are proud to actively support the Shine School Media Awards!

Design is obviously something we love, and to see it nurtured in education is very rewarding. Shine is an annual awards day for young people who write, design and promote a school magazine – in print and online.

The initial focus of the project each year is the winners book. This brochure is handed out on the day of the awards itself in June and contains the winners’ work, their photos and background to the judging.

What we did

IDENTITY AND WINNERS’ BOOK

One of the things when we began work on Shine is to achieve was a great, modern identity for the awards.

The previous logo seemed in need of a polish, so we kept its basic essence and added some fresh typography (which then continued through the winners book) and more than a hint of Joan Miró…

This year’s winners’ book was printed with two special colours on a gatefold cover. It’s our sixth version of the book and we’re so pleased with the end result.

In July 2025, the Shine team were thrilled to tell Her Majesty Queen Camilla about the Shine project, which was an incredible privilege.

WEBSITE

As part of our work for Shine, we’ve designed and built a modern, custom-design website for the awards.

The site features extensive information for entrants, an application form for future entrants and a blog which features ongoing news in the run-up to each year’s ceremony in June.

If you require design work to this kind of exacting, high spec we would be really interested in working with you.
