Annual Report
Our Place Peel is a non-profit agency that provides shelter and support for homeless and at-risk youth in the Peel Region.
Insight
In 2025, Our Place Peel celebrated the 40th anniversary of opening their first home for at-risk youth in the Peel Region. To mark this milestone year, they set out to create a special anniversary logo and a standout annual report that would honour their history, highlight their impact, and deepen community connection.
Idea
The visual identity is inspired by building blocks and a strong foundation. The stacked shapes echo the idea of creating stability for at-risk youth, while the different forms represent the diverse people who make up the Our Place Peel community.

Key takeaways
How I grew as a designer
✍︎
Designing a cohesive Visual system
Learned how to create a cohesive visual design ad not just individual pages. Working with grids, type scales, and recurring motifs showed me how to create layouts that feel consistent and connected, even as content, images, and page structures change.
☻
Learned how to make information feel human, pairing words and images in a way that turns data, reports, or research into something emotional and readable.
