For the content management system (CMS), we used Typo3, a hugely powerful and dynamic website authoring, collaboration and administration tool designed to allow a web administrator with limited programming skills to create and manage content with relative ease. The website is in the final phase of completion and is scheduled to go live in the first quater of 2011. http://www.g2design.co.za/wwf-annual-report-design.htm http://www.g2design.co.za/wwf-annual-report-design.htm For the third consecutive year, G2 Design was selected to design the WWF-SA Annual Report. The Worldwide Fund for Nature (WWF) is a globally recognised conservation organisation, with its world-famous panda logo, that is supported by both corporate and private donors, and WWF-SA's list of partners and supporters is a veritable who's who of the South African business world. The WWF International has recently introduced new corporate ID guidelines which were incorporated into the design. http://www.g2design.co.za/enviroworks-newsletter-design.htm http://www.g2design.co.za/enviroworks-newsletter-design.htm CITY OF CAPE TOWN ENVIROWORKS NEWSLETTER For the second year running G2 Design won the contract for the half-yearly editions of the City of Cape Town's Enviroworks Newsletter. The response from readers on the redesign and fresh new communication angle of the newsletter was overwhelmingly positive.

We designed this year's annual report with a sense of depth, texture, tradition and warmth in mind. The idea being to create a financial report with a difference. It is a modern yet traditionally inspired design, that highlights the people, the growing facilities and the strength of heart within the University.
