Every year, Rhythm ‘n’ Run Marathon Club organises an event to celebrate the new year, and open the sporting season.

I was asked — many years ago now — to design the poster for the inaugural event. It was clear then that the “crown” motif would be sticking around, as it is organised on the first weekend of January, also known as Epiphany.

Over the years many concepts have come and gone in the design language, but it’s always kept a few things at its core: an architecturally stacked logo, "DIY” feel, and cold colors.
