This is the 2025 annual report I designed for So Dates, a women\u2019s wellness and community brand whose brand identity and social media visuals I also created. The report looks back on the year\u2019s events, the community, and the brand\u2019s impact, then sets goals for 2026. I shifted the palette from the soft pink of the social posts to deep burgundy, coral, and gold, so the report feels more official while still matching the brand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The overlapping circles from the cover come back as photo crops and highlight shapes, tying the pages together. The Community and Predictions pages needed the most work: I used bar charts, a pie chart, a map, and a large \u201c50%\u201d callout so the numbers read quickly. I designed it in InDesign & Illustrator. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

A long document needs a clear system of headings, colors, and shapes so every page feels like part of the same story.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

An annual report is more than a summary of the year. It\u2019s a brand visual that helps a business set goals, grow, and prepare for what\u2019s next. One of my main goals as a designer is to help businesses bring their vision to life, refine their brand, and plan ahead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
