For Southern Methodist University’s annual report, the theme of "Transformative" served as the foundation for both the design and structure of the piece.

To visually represent this idea, I introduced tangrams as a recurring icon, using their dynamic, ever-evolving shapes to define each section. This concept extended beyond simple markers—tangram-inspired compositions informed the overall layout, splitting sections into geometric forms that felt fluid yet intentional.

The result was a report that didn’t just convey transformation in words, but through its very structure, creating a compelling and cohesive narrative across every page.
