Bank of Hawaii is the second oldest, locally owned bank in Hawaii. An annual report is produced to highlight their achievements of the past year and focus on their goals for the future. The client also requested a handbook of the bank’s vision and core values to be designed as a source of inspiration for their employees.

Design the annual report cover with a layered image of a surfer to show dynamic energy from a unique perspective. Customer profiles were all shot on-site to tell a story. A neutral color palette, overlaying layers and client testimonials showcase the bank’s capabilities. The annual report cover was printed on uncoated stock with matte gloss to protect the white paper and give a tactile touchpoint.

The vision book has a smaller format with inspiring photos and minimal copy to create a personal connection. It was printed on thick stock with metallic copper, duotones and opaque white foil to highlight the bank’s milestones and celebrate its rich heritage.
