Loyola Academy Rowing

True story.
2021

The Loyola Academy Rowing Association gives students the opportunity to learn the techniques and traditions of rowing, with an emphasis on teamwork and perseverance.

After their 2019/20 season was cut short by COVID-19, the teammates, coaches and parents sought alternative ways to stay connected and practice their shared values. In this spirit, their 2019/20 Annual Report was themed “Tradition. Connection. Commitment.”

With a foundation of traditional styles, the book aimed to bring a more aspirational appeal to this year’s story. Taking visual cues from rowing and water, typographic details such as pull-quotes were composed with fluid, horizontal movement. Photographs contrasting size and scale, color and black & white, highlighted the dedication of the student-athletes.
