Project overview

The National Judicial College of Australia required a comprehensive annual report presenting organisational achievements, judicial education programs, strategic outcomes and detailed reporting information. The document brought together extensive written content, photography, charts, tables, infographics and organisational information.

A considered colour palette, clear section hierarchy and carefully arranged supporting visuals create a cohesive reading experience throughout the report.

Key capabilities demonstrated

  • Multi-page editorial design
  • Complex information hierarchy

Project overview

The PSA memorandum required a professional, structured document designed within Microsoft Office rather than traditional design software. The challenge was to deliver a polished visual presentation while working within the practical requirements and formatting capabilities of Microsoft Word.

The design demonstrates that high-quality document presentation is achievable even when a project must be produced in Microsoft Office.

Technical delivery

The memorandum was designed using Microsoft Word and relevant Microsoft Office tools, then exported to PDF for final distribution.

Key capabilities demonstrated

  • Professional Microsoft Word document design
  • Complex text formatting
  • Structured document layouts
