Donata

Editorial spreads showcasing structured content hierarchy

The digital divide affects millions worldwide, yet the complexity of this issue often prevents meaningful engagement. Donata was created to translate dense UN Sustainable Development data into an accessible, visually compelling editorial format that inspires action.

The design language uses stark contrasts — deep slate blues against clean whites — to visually represent the inequality at the heart of the content. Bold, oversized numbers reference the data-driven narrative, while generous whitespace allows the serious subject matter room to breathe.

"Do not waste data. Save and donate." The publication encourages readers to consider how their unused data resources could benefit those without digital access, turning abstract inequality into actionable individual responsibility.

Children from disadvantaged backgrounds have experienced the greatest disruption to their education.

Donata was exhibited at the university's end-of-year show and received commendation for its balance of aesthetic impact and meaningful content. The project demonstrates how editorial design can serve as a powerful tool for social commentary and advocacy.
