Corporate & Sustainability Reporting
For the eighth consecutive year, ADMCF partnered with Cheddar Media to bring their annual report to life. The challenge for 2023 was to communicate the urgent theme of “Getting Hotter,” reflecting the intensifying climate crisis and its impact on biodiversity and communities. The report needed to engage readers with compelling, real-world stories and data while maintaining the Foundation’s established visual identity. It was essential to balance clarity and accessibility with impactful design—ensuring the publication would resonate with stakeholders and reinforce ADMCF’s leadership in environmental advocacy.
Cheddar Media collaborated closely with ADMCF to design a report that was both visually striking and grounded in reality. We created a custom illustrated cover and developed a clean, modern layout that made complex information easy to navigate, while custom infographics distilled key data and insights. Our design approach ensured that the urgent theme of “Getting Hotter” was communicated with clarity and impact, making the report both accessible and engaging for a wide audience.
The use of impactful photography throughout the report continued to inspire and bring reality forward in ADMCF’s brand ethos—speaking directly to their real-life work and tangible impact on climate and environmental themes. This approach set the tone for the entire publication, reflecting both the Foundation’s established identity and its openness to digital innovation, and reinforcing the authenticity and transparency that define ADMCF’s communications.
The 2023 ADMCF Annual Report successfully captured the urgency of the “Getting Hotter” theme, engaging stakeholders with a blend of clear storytelling, compelling visuals, and authentic photography. The clean design and custom infographics made the report accessible and informative, while the consistent use of real-world imagery reinforced ADMCF’s credibility and mission-driven impact. Positive feedback from partners and readers affirmed the effectiveness of the collaborative approach, further strengthening ADMCF’s position as a leader in environmental advocacy and transparent reporting.
