For the national StuKO (Student Qualification Education) project, I designed the entire book concept, layout, and visual system, translating complex educational research into a clear, accessible, and inspiring publication. I was responsible for the full book design, creating both a printed edition and a digital version. The booklet presents best practices, insights, and real-world examples from universities across the Netherlands on how students are trained and supported as teachers. The project is led by Utrecht University and aims to build a national framework and recognition for Students as Teachers. You can find more information on the book, as well as the full digital edition through the link below.

Initial Creative Brief

Initial Creative Brief

This is the creative brief I sent the clients after our initial meeting. They wanted something that would be fun and colourful, but clear and informative.

After seeing the creative brief, we aligned on a clearer vision for the book. There would be cohesion between each chapter, but when flicking through the book, you should instantly be able to recognise a chapter. I created 6 different spread designs that were used across chapters and could be used again, just not with a colour palette previously used within that spread design. Additionally, I added all the main content in the two inner columns, keeping the outer columns for quotes, tips from authors and QR codes/links. To see the complete digital version, click here.
