The Queen’s Platinum Jubilee will be defined by an “elegant” emblem created by a university student who is “over the moon” after winning a design competition.
Young creatives were set the challenge of summing-up the Queen’s 70-year reign with their artistic skills and Edward Roberts’ simple logo was chosen by a judging panel of industry experts.
The 19-year-old’s winning purple and platinum-coloured entry features a stylised crown, incorporating the number 70, on a round background similar to a royal seal, and will publicise the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee which will be marked next June by a special, four-day, bank holiday weekend.
