When Steph (a lecturer at the OU) first approached me she’d been working with the internal design team at the OU. Unfortunately they couldn’t create something that presented the research that she and her students had been working on, in a clear and engaging way.
The internal team had tried but the concepts they came up with were very boring and corporate. (Steph’s words not mine!) And this is where I stepped in. I was able to take their content and design a brochure that clearly communicated all the teams findings. Without it looking boring and corporate. The design needed to follow the very strict brand guidelines and at the same time break those rules a little too!
And the feedback has been awesome "lots of students tell us that it’s a much needed and invaluable resource that’s both engaging and vibrant”
