Overview

Kiewit’s real estate team needed a lookbook showcasing office interiors created with Eastec Design Group. The challenge was to give the photography room to breathe while staying unmistakably Kiewit.

I handled the lookbook from start to finish, including typography, image selection, layout, and print preparation.

Built on the Brand

Kiewit’s yellow sets the structure. Full-yellow pages introduce each chapter, a yellow rule runs along the bottom of every spread, and the brand’s condensed type carries the headlines.

The interiors get the space; the facts sit alongside them.

Each featured project opens with a full-page photograph facing a yellow page with the key details.

Numbers at a Glance

Growth and sustainability figures are set in large type with simple line icons, so the important numbers are easy to pick out without reading through a paragraph.
