Empowering Cordeel's sustainability story through engaging design, accessibility, and effective copywriting
Initially, the idea was a simple PDF template, but we recommended a web format that would provide a more engaging and interactive user experience while being highly adaptable for future use.
-
UX/UI Design:
We began the project by creating wireframes to outline the structure and functionality of the website. The design strikes a balance between creativity and practicality, making it highly flexible.
-
Development:
The development phase focused on building customizable content blocks and creating interactive graphs. We also made sure the report would be easily accessible by allowing users to download the full website in an automatically generated PDF format.
-
Copywriting:
Our team supported Cordeel in drafting and finalizing its impact report by using GRI standards as a framework to determine the report content and to make it easy to navigate for stakeholders.
Crafting a user-friendly sustainability report adaptable for future use
We successfully supported Cordeel in crafting a compelling impact report with a focus on adaptability and user experience. Compared to a simple PDF, the website we developed is much more user-friendly, thanks to the hamburger menu that allows for easy navigation. Meanwhile, the interactive graphs make Cordeel’s impressive impact achievements stand out. We also designed an easy-to-use back-end and highly customizable content blocks, making the template as adaptable as possible and future updates a breeze. Indeed, the key advantage of our digital solution is adaptability: Cordeel won’t have to invest in a new reporting design in the next few years, as they will be able to adapt the web template we developed to publish future impact reports.
Concerning copywriting, we used GRI standards to create the framework and redefine the content, making the report as user-friendly as possible and challenging Cordeel to be even more ambitious and transparent. Unlike typical sustainability reports, we went a step further by tailoring the content table to align with company-specific information and cater to the needs of users, while still adhering to relevant frameworks. Given our experience in reporting, we also chose to use simple language and alternate technical pieces with entertaining visuals from Cordeel’s day-to-day processes. Clear explanations and introductions were provided throughout the report to ensure ease of navigation and comprehension for stakeholders. The final result is a user-friendly, highly customizable report that engages readers with its interactive features and clear communication of data.
