Sony / Conceptual annual-report cover
01 / Brief & role

A brand story.
A clear structure.

Redesign an existing annual report for a company in a field of interest, using charts, graphs and tables to develop information-design skills.

My goal was to make the original Sony report more visually interesting and easier to read. I developed a publication system that balanced an expressive visual direction with clear organization for narrative, financial and business information.

02 / Visual language

Technology, with
a human presence.

I chose bold colors and geometric framing to give the report a more modern feel that suited Sony. Photographic compositions connect the cover to the interior, while magenta headings and accents carry a consistent thread through different types of content.

The publication system

Image. Information.
One visual language.

03 / Information design

Make the numbers
part of the story.

A timeline, circular diagrams, charts and tables give different information types their own structures. The shared accent color connects them to the report’s editorial pages.

Timeline / Milestones arranged across the spread
Financial highlights / Bar and line charts
Financial statements / Tables and shaded comparison columns
04 / Across the report

A system that
changes pace.

Image-led spreads alternate with denser reading pages. Colored framing, pull quotes and large figures provide variations within the same publication.

An editorial
design concept.
