The project
This commemorative award marks 50 years of the Universitat Politècnica de València, recognising work, effort and dedication. Archicercle adapted Jose Armijo’s design and manufactured the piece in acrylic and plywood.
The meeting point between the two materials is central to the design. Rather than a straight division, their shared edge traces a silhouette representing the university’s 50th anniversary. The commemoration is therefore part of the object’s form as well as its inscriptions.
The piece has a rectangular format, with a light-coloured wooden section below an acrylic upper section. The contrast between the two surfaces emphasises the profile joining them. The award includes UPV’s visual identity, the inscription ‘50 anys’ and a tribute text.
Archicercle’s contribution focused on adapting the external design and producing it in the two documented materials. The finished piece retains the commemorative silhouette as its defining feature and is presented with a black box.
The anniversary silhouette is integrated into the meeting point between acrylic and plywood.
