To give our message a boldness that can’t be ignored, oversized condensed display type and an industrial monospaced font are used for headlines and callouts. Non-traditional, white space–heavy layouts reinforce that workforce development is a contemporary issue. Custom colored spiral binding adds a tactile quality and is reminiscent of educational workbooks. A warm color palette, rooted in the blue from Deaconess’s logo, and playful spot illustrations ensure the report still feels balanced and human.
This annual report is a huge leap forward for the Deaconess brand in both voice and visuals; it underscores the significance (and necessity) of their work and gives them a more memorable presence in Cleveland’s workforce development community.
