The Cheesecake Factory came to Walden Hyde in need of a CSR template. Due to staffing changes they had designers who could execute our template but who didn't have experience building a CSR report from scratch. Luckily that is my specialty! I always make extensive parent pages and paragraph, character, and object styles in my InDesign files for all CSR reports, but for this project it was fun knowing another designer would get to use them.
I set up custom folios, divider pages and a whole slew of type styles. Multiple levels of headlines, bullets, and of course body copy that was the perfect point site to be read on devices. I left notes to their designer inside InDesign for more advance things, like automating the TOC page. I was also tasked with creating a few simple infographics.
