Different by Design

Role: Creative Direction and Design

The Belmont University Different By Design President’s Report celebrates the intentionality behind the University’s decisions to take on events, projects, and partnerships that set it apart from other universities, while highlighting the recent acquisition of a local design college and announcing Middle Tennessee’s first Bachelor of Architecture. To support the theme “Different By Design,” the materials were designed to to mimic the multi-faceted, unique, and creative spirit of the University through a balance of varied visual motifs paired with a foundational stylistic framework. 

I lead the design of the project and managed the production of three versions. The project was designed in a way that allowed the book to go on press all at once. The design utilizes six different papers and different page widths to further convey the theme of “Different By Design.” 

This project was awarded a Tennessee College Public Relations Association GOLD award in the reports category as well as a Premier Print award by the Printing Industries of America.
