Client: Bloomsbury; Sector: Publishing; Skills: Cover and page design, typesetting, hand typography


Lead designer for the Lit in Colour report, spotlighting diversity in plays and drama and increasing student access to plays by Global Majority writers. The client required a report that felt cohesive and consistent, while incorporating content from a wide range of sources, including education, publishing, theatre and the arts. The design had to adhere to Bloomsbury’s iconic but strict brand guidelines and be informed by previous publications, but also needed to appear new and engaging in its own right. The report featured hand-designed page headings, quotes and case study elements that met the brief, while celebrating and uplifting the diversity of the content and its contributors.
