Each October, the College of Architecture, Design and Construction hosts an awards banquet to celebrate the success of the College’s faculty, staff, students, alumni, industry partners and friends.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, this year’s celebration was held virtually. This drastically reduced the required deliverables: while an invitation was required, it need only be digital, and several of the usual deliverables—table numbers, giveaways, sponsor signage, etc.—were no longer a necessity. Since this year’s programs were printed for awardees only, most attendees received the program digitally, which forced me to analyze the document’s digital readability. While the slideshow remained mostly unchanged, its structure was slightly modified to accommodate images of each award so that awardees and attendees alike could glean a feeling of celebration.
