A handbook designed for new students at New College, one of U of T’s largest colleges

Acme Art & Design was commissioned to redesign the student handbook for New College, a constituent college of the University of Toronto. The goal was to create a more user-friendly and visually appealing resource that would effectively guide and inform students about college policies, resources, and campus life. I took a comprehensive approach to the redesign, combining meticulous design work with photography services.

The design process began with a thorough review of the existing handbook’s structure and content. Collaborating closely with New College administrators, I developed a streamlined layout that prioritized clarity and accessibility. In addition to handling all aspects of the design, I leveraged my photography skills to enhance the handbook’s visual appeal and authenticity. Capturing campus scenes, student activities, and key facilities, the photography complemented the design and contributed to a cohesive and engaging student experience.

In the years following the initial redesign I collaborated with the New College team on a parent’s handbook as well as an online version of the student handbook.
