Royal Mail - Glasgow Commonwealth Games 2014 Stamp & Coin Cover

We were privileged to be asked by the Royal Mail to design the commemorative stamp and coin cover celebrating the Glasgow XX 2014 Commonwealth Games.

The covers has all six Special Stamps affixed along with a Glasgow 2014 commemorative 50p coin struck by The Royal Mint. 

Our task was to encapsulate the Games and the vibrant cultural city of Glasgow whilst adhering to Team Scotland’s brand guidelines. We kept the front of envelope minimal and typogaphic to provide a showcase platform for the stamps. The internal presentation pack then provided an explosion of colour focusing around the freshly minted 50p coin - in gold or silver too! The hand stamp was created using iconic buildings from Glasgow’s architectural skyline.
