Design the layout and graphics for a written case study about retail investors.
As part of the internal marketing design team, you have been tasked with creating a visually appealing, multi-page case study that showcases Robinhood's impact on the stock trading industry.
The case study has already been written by the copywriting team and follows the format of Company Context, Problem, and Solution. Your job is to take the prewritten content and transform it into a marketable design that can be viewed on desktop and mobile devices and printed on standard US-Letter sized paper.
The copywriting team has requested that you include a product UI-mockup of the Robinhood interface to highlight key takeaways from the solution. They also want the benefits section to include a call-to-action and accompanying iconography for visual appeal.

Designing Case Studies isn't rocket science, in-fact is pretty straight forward. The key to a successful case study design is embellishing the written content with visual aides. Case studies are written in a specific manner to setup a problem and show how a company or organization responded to and solved said problem. As a designer of these documents, its important to reflect this structure and add imagery, icons, or other visuals to help strengthen and communicate the content and message.
Case studies can be designed in many formats and should be determined based on delivery and context. These formats include printable documents, slide decks, as well as webpages or even videos.
Good Question. A one-pager is a marketing or sales document typically used in B2B or B2B2C relationships. Despite its name, it can be a single or two-page document. These documents are often sent via email after a call or at the request of another company or party. One-pagers have a narrow target audience and are created for a specific purpose, so it's important to understand who the audience is and what they care about to make the copywriting and graphics effective.
