01Brief
Brief design for an Ivey report on workplace gender diversity — a considered visual voice for a sensitive corporate topic.
02Approach
- 01Designed a clean grid and typographic hierarchy to present complex academic research on workplace gender diversity clearly for corporate and executive readers
- 02Selected a restrained editorial colour palette and geometric accents to avoid typical corporate clichés while maintaining visual gravity
- 03Laid out the research findings with prominent pull quotes, structured tables, and balanced whitespace to keep the long-form analysis readable and engaging
03Outcomes
- A finished policy brief that established a quiet, authoritative tone for corporate and academic audiences
- A repeatable layout system that allowed the school to format similar research findings under the same visual identity
