We often tackle complex social issues in our work, and being able to tell clear, captivating stories that connect people to their impact is vital. With Readymag, our design teams can bring project deliverables to life in a way that is both inspiring and accessible. The Readymag platform allows us to lead with human stories and provide one easily accessible URL that connects our partners to all the necessary tools and next steps. — Kristin Riger, Design Director at IDEO.org

Usecase: 10-year impact report

In September 2021, IDEO.org turned 10 and rolled out an impact report as a public measure of their work over the past decade. Beyond showcasing the amount of people reached with their solutions, the team wanted to tell a story about what it means to measure the impact of design and candidly reflect on what they’ve learned. “I think we probably used every possible tool available on Readymag. I would say the visual style of the report is very editorial. We used a combination of collages, videos, and photography to celebrate the diversity of our projects and the people we work with,” says Joan Encarnacion.
