Custom Awards – That Tells Your Brand Story
Beneath every award lies a story. At Spared, we specialise in custom award design that reflects your brand’s values, celebrating your people, partners, and culture in a way that’s both beautiful and meaningful.
Why “Custom” Matters
When brands search for “custom awards” they’re typically look for something unique—far beyond mass-produced trophies. They want awards that feel personal, crafted, and connected to their identity. By sourcing from your brand’s own waste—like offcuts, expired stock, or packaging—we create awards that carry deeper resonance.
- What’s more meaningful than telling your people, “This award was made from materials we used together”?
- That sense of being rooted in experience is what makes our work stand out.
Materials with Meaning
Over the years, we’ve pushed the boundaries of material reuse:
- Virgin Voyages Awards, crafted from post-consumer plastics and old CD’s & DVD’s and designed to mirror their large-scale ship art installations. Celebrating their crew and trusted travel partners.
- Archiboo Awards, made from blue plastic and cork—dignified in design, light in impact.
- Plus X Innovation Awards, made from plastic waste and pantone matched to brand identify.
- Cruise Ship Interiors Awards, soft, organic form as a nod to the bow of the ship – made from recycled whelk shells
Each trophy is developed with the same care and craftsmanship as a larger installation, yet scaled for intimacy and meaning.
Your Brand’s Story, Crafted by Design
We combine:
- Narrative design thinking – Each project starts with a discovery session, listening to what you want your awards to say.
- Material sourcing – We guide you in selecting meaningful waste materials—flooring, packaging, upholstery, or production offcuts.
- Design & iteration – We develop sketches, prototypes, and finishes tailored to your brand identity and goals.
- Handcrafted production – Each award is produced in our UK studio, with expert finishing and attention to detail.
- Sustainable delivery – Delivered ready to present, packed sustainably, finished to last.
By reusing your waste, your awards embody the very essence of custom award design—not only created for your brand, but with it.

So, whether you already have a creative vision or need help shaping one, we can help you create awards that do more than reward—they reflect who you are and tell a deeper story.
