This project involved researching and designing a Social Sustainability Report for a company. While analyzing information, this project allowed the study and understanding of the development and structure of a multiple page layout. The design, organization, and structure has an appropriate creative vision for the company's message. The information comes from the company's corporate website and Certified B Corporation page.

‍Design Challenge: Gain deeper understanding of research, concept and methodology; investigate and experiment with layout over multiple pages; explore paper sourcing (sustainable/eco-conscious), binding techniques, formatting, pacing of information, visual possibilities inherent with publication design; and further understanding of type and hierarchical organization and understanding of “Green Design” and production.

‍Design Parameters: Must be at least 28 pages total. Company research should include Mission statement, information about the company’s B-Corp certification and what is a Certified B Corporation. Include the chart that gives the company’s B Corp score and re-design the chart. What does the company do that is a sustainable practice for the environment. Further information that discusses future sustainable goals. Call-outs or quotes from the company’s information. At least one information graphic detailing a sustainable practice by the company (original design based on content research, not found). Board of directors, contact information, etc. Documentation of found imagery as well as a colophon. Size cannot be smaller than 6”x 8.75” or 8.75”x 6”; up to 4 colors; either 4 spot or 4 color process; use photography or illustration. Research sustainable practice in graphic design which includes recycled paper.
