Edmonton and Calgary Annual Report Design

Creating excellent and award-winning Annual Reports since 1993

Part marketing piece, part financial report, and part legal document, an annual report is the platypus of the design world. A very important little platypus at that.

The turnaround time is usually alarmingly tight, with consequences to your company and possibly your career. Ours too. Your annual report is a project we take every bit as seriously as you do.

Whether you're out to produce an award-winning annual report or to create a functional, budget-conscious report stake-holders will appreciate, we'll get it right.

At GRAPHOS, we've designed and produced numerous printed annual reports since our start in 1993, for public and non-profit organizations of all sizes.

One of our clients, an emerging public company does its annual report in such a short run we digitally print just over a hundred copies, while another client with more than 3,000 employees throughout Canada and the United States has us produce three different perfect-bound annual reports (including one entirely in French)! We can take the project from start to finish, including initial consultation, strategic planning, conceptual development, copywriting and content creation, layout and design, custom professional illustration in any media, creative direction of photography and artwork, production, print management and press checks, bindery and even distribution. We also lay out, design and produce quarterly reports as well as paperless downloadable PDF reports and electronic multimedia versions.

We specialize in creative annual report ideas, from innovative photography and illustration, audience-tailored copy writing, and printing on specialty paper stocks using custom printing techniques such as hot foil stamping, die-cuts, embossing or debossing, thermography and using special inks (metallic or fluorescent colours) and coatings such as UV, varnishes or aqueous. We'll also help you decide how to hold this year's report together, whether that means perfect binding (glued with a square back), saddle-stitched (normally three staples) coil-bound in wire-o unicoil, chicago screws, singer stitched, or something entirely original.

Be sure to view samples from our 15 years of successful annual report designs in the quick-loading GRAPHOS Design Lab site.
