Eagle Eye / Anthem

IMG_1433

For the second issue of Raffles Insitution's magazine Eagle Eye, the editorial feature was on Founder's Day. We didn't want the design to fall back on the expected symbols of the school's identity - its crest, school buildings, Stamford Raffles' profile, the gryphon etc...

The lyrics of the Institution anthem not only express the school's values, they are words every Rafflesian would have sung and experienced as part of their school life since 1961. Hence the anthem is embossed on the cover and, quite literally, carved into every student's memory. The impression of the lyrics extends to the reverse of the cover, which is made up of a montage of 650 photographs of the school's student life today.
