Making complex data readable
MPS engaged our team to design their annual ESG and sustainability report, a 44-page document covering environmental targets, governance metrics, and social impact data for a global semiconductor company. I came in as a design consultant under a creative director, responsible for developing and executing the layout system across the full document.
The challenge: dense technical content that still needed to feel considered, transparent, and human. Not a marketing piece, but not dry either.
Structure first, craft second
Before touching any page layout, I built out the full document architecture: grid system, master pages, typographic hierarchy, color applications, and a set of reusable infographic templates for data tables and callout stats.
Working under an NDA means the real content stays private here, but the structural decisions were all mine: how sections breathe, how data lands on the page, how a reader moves from the executive summary through to the appendices without losing the thread.
First real freelance engagement
This was my first significant professional design engagement: working within a real production team, signing an NDA, submitting formal estimates, and meeting hard deadlines on a document published and distributed to investors and stakeholders.
It confirmed that I can operate in a professional production context, take direction while still owning my piece of the work, and deliver at the standard a client with real stakes requires.
