I was commissioned to redraw the crest of St John’s College, one of the most historic colleges in Cambridge, in collaboration with SomeOne. The result is a refined, contemporary rendering that respects tradition while working seamlessly across modern applications.

The project received excellent press, including a glowing review on Brand New :

“As far as detailed college and university crests go, the old one was already fairly streamlined… The new crest proves you can always do better… As if that weren’t enough magic by Anthony Millard, the crest also comes in a simplified version that multiplies the readability, usability, and flexibility of the crest exponentially.”

   “Magic by Anthony Millard — a crest that’s more impactful, flexible, and beautifully drawn.”
