Designing a Presidential Commemorative Award

      On a tight turnaround, I was commissioned to design a custom commemorative award for President Karol Nawrocki of Poland. The piece was presented during his visit to Washington, D.C. on Sunday, June 14, where he met with representatives from the Polish Embassy, the Polish American Congress, and the John Paul II Foundation.    

      The project required balancing national symbolism with a clean, contemporary aesthetic while working closely with fabrication constraints to ensure the final engraved glass piece was ready in time for the ceremony.
