For the third year in a row, I was tasked with creating an annual report for Brown Advisory that stands out against the traditional. I envisioned a report that had the look and feel of a gallery or coffee table book. By highlighting the “Intangible” qualities of the Brown Advisory work force, I commissioned two artist to create abstract, geometric pieces that visually depicted each intangible quality. To round out the cohesion of the book, I pulled colors from the artwork and incorporated them through the photography, copy, tables, and charts.
