ASSIGNMENT SUMMARY
My projects for NHA adhered strictly to their branding style guide, a 100+ page document that, while comprehensive, was severely outdated. My key assignments at NHA included:
1. Revitalize NHA medical forms by moving them from Adobe Lifecycle Designer into Adobe InDesign based on provincial drug formatting standards and convey important information based on the accessibility standards outlined in the style guide
2. Gradually introduce modern, accessible typography, colors, and spacing to update the outdated style guide, ensuring it more effectively reflected NHA’s brand identity.
3. Revitalize older layout designs for ongoing annual marketing campaigns into fresh and accessible designs prioritizing readability and contrast for patients with diverse health conditions including color blindness, and vision impairments
