The brief for the BNU Corporate Social Responsibility Report was to design an engaging publication that communicated Bucks New University's commitment to social responsibility in a clear, accessible, and visually compelling way. The document needed to showcase the university's achievements across its four key CSR pillars - Environment, Philanthropy, Community, and Workplace - while reflecting its status as the first UK university to achieve Gold CSR Accreditation.Â
To balance a substantial amount of information with an engaging reading experience, the design adopted a vibrant colour palette, distinctive iconography, and clean infographic-led layouts that made key messages easy to digest. The result was a professional yet approachable publication that reinforced the university's values, celebrated its positive impact, and demonstrated its ongoing commitment to sustainability, inclusion, and community engagement.
