Report design
An engaging and memorable read
A report is one of the most significant ways to connect with your customers, employees and investors. Thanks to our report design expertise we can help you translate essential company targets, performance and strategy information into an engaging and memorable read.
For 30 years we have helped organisations with innovative report design ideas. Design ideas that don’t distract from your corporate message and always adapt to what you stand for as a business – a transparent organisation which not only delivers on its promises, but also cares.
The companies we have helped with one of their key communication tools may have been in sectors as diverse as Utilities, Education, Charity, Human Resources or Energy, to name a few. And in every case, we have helped them succeed at communicating in an impactful way.
Whether you choose to speak to your audience through a quality printed piece to hold on to, or an engaging digital report to interact with, Parker Design can help.

What Our Clients Say About Working With Us
Here’s what some of our clients have to say about their experience working with us on their projects – from the clarity of the process and the creativity of the design, to how well the final outcome met their goals and connected with their audience.
OUR REPORT DESIGN PROCESS
Report design requires structure, accuracy and judgement. Our process is shaped to support complex content, regulatory requirements and the needs of different audiences, while ensuring the finished report is coherent, engaging and credible.
Discovery and Scope
We begin by understanding the purpose of the report and the context it sits within. This includes:
- Audience expectations and reporting obligations.
- Key messages, themes and priorities.
- Format, whether print, digital or both.
Content Planning
Once the scope is clear, we focus on organising content so it reads logically and consistently. This stage covers:
- Reviewing supplied content and identifying gaps or overlaps.
- Structuring sections to support flow and comprehension.
- Advising on hierarchy, emphasis and pacing across the report.
Design Development
With structure agreed, design work begins. The focus is on restraint, consistency and readability. This includes:
- Typography, colour and layout aligned to brand guidelines.
- Use of charts, tables and infographics to support understanding.
- Page layouts that guide the reader through complex information.
Review and Refinement
We work closely with you to refine the report through review cycles. This stage includes:
- Adjusting layouts, visuals and hierarchy.
- Ensuring consistency across sections and formats.
- Supporting internal approvals and sign-off.
Final Production
Once approved, we prepare the report for delivery. This includes:
- Print-ready artwork or digital outputs.
- Versioning for different audiences or channels where required.
- Files supplied to specification and ready for use.
Post-Publication Support
Our relationship doesn’t end with delivery. We support you with future updates, additional formats, or adapting your annual report content into presentations, microsites, or social media assets – ensuring your story reaches every audience effectively.
