The Challenge

Modernize an iconic award without losing its legacy.

Our Approach

Design with respect. Deliver with speed.

FILE2FAB collaborated closely with stakeholders to reimagine the trophy’s form and finish. We refined its proportions, updated key details, and selected materials that elevated its presence — both in hand and on camera.
