For Who’s Who France, we’ve redesigned their biographies annual. We have to rebuilt the structure of information in a way that it match the database structure and not so much visually structured to avoid a too clear difference between biographies, aka someone with long studies versus someone with short ones. Navigation on the top of pages help readers to find easier the right page. We’ve also built new sections to clearly differentiate the various contents. We selected Le Monde Journal and Le Monde Sans who are born as ultra legible newspapers typefaces. The result is more legible and we gained 20% of space. We delivered a design guidelines and typographic specifications to let them produce more than 2000 pages using XML to connect their database to Adobe Indesign.
