Work / Eight research findings
Eight research findings.
Our first collaboration with WISE — an editorial system for the 2019 Research Findings Report. Academic rigour, modern design vocabulary, bilingual parity, print and digital ready for the summit.
· Overview
The brief
WISE's 2019 Research Findings Report was our first collaboration with the programme. The brief was to introduce a new editorial system that could carry WISE's work for multiple years.
We built the system from first principles — typographic hierarchy, baseline grid, chart library, bilingual layout rules — so that every future report could extend rather than rebuild.

AR and EN layouts designed simultaneously, not translated after.
03 — Chart library v1
Built the chart vocabulary that later reports would extend.
04 — Handover ready
Delivered an InDesign library + handover guide so WISE's team could produce year-on-year editions.
