Collegiate identity treated like heraldry. Deep navy holds the upper body, a pale ornamental band grounds the base, and the whole thing reads as one composed object rather than a graphic dropped onto a cup.

Design Story

The focal panel is a shield crest centred on a forward-facing bear, calm and symmetrical, framed by laurel forms, twin tower motifs and a ribboned banner. Arched lettering caps the composition, a smaller banner and a basketball emblem close it at the base, with additional lettering across the lower field. Gold linework carries the hierarchy from top to bottom while the navy field supplies the negative space that keeps the ornament legible instead of crowded. The palette stays disciplined: two tones and one metallic accent.

Use & Experience

On a tall tumbler silhouette the crest sits exactly where the eye lands first, front and centre, with the vertical proportion letting the design breathe above the pale lower band. The wraparound composition tapers cleanly toward the base, and the handle and lid framing echo the same navy-and-gold rhythm. Carry presence is high without shouting.
