Client: EuroGOOS / University of Tuscia
Project: Affordable Technologies for Marine Observation — 140-page white paper, 23 contributing scientists

The Challenge

Twenty-three scientists wrote a white paper that could shift how ocean monitoring is funded and practiced globally. The deadline was fixed: printed copies had to land at the Ocean Sciences Meeting in Glasgow, in front of 6,000 researchers and decision-makers from 60 countries. A flat, generic layout would have buried the science. That was not an option.

The Strategy

Full typesetting and layout across 140 pages. Custom visuals, graphs, icons, and figures — all built to serve the content, not decorate it. I sourced real-world photography showing what affordable ocean monitoring actually looks like in practice. Every page was structured so a researcher could scan it fast and still trust it on close reading. I also designed a conference poster for Prof. Marcelli's session, giving the publication a presence in the poster area from day one.

The Impact

The publication launched at OSM Glasgow, reached researchers and policymakers across 60 countries, and is now archived with a permanent DOI. EuroGOOS has come back for several projects since. That says enough.
