When the WAVE Foundation needed a compact way to share its mission and drive involvement, Evolution creative solutions leveraged a proprietary, business card-sized accordion design that combined smart structure with precision finishing. The piece earned a Gold award for Specialty Finishing from the Graphic Media Alliance Print Excellence Awards.
Smart Design, Big Impact
When the WAVE Foundation approached Evolution creative solutions for a print solution, we recommended a proven structural concept originally developed for another client, recognizing it as the right fit for WAVE’s marketing goals.
A business card-sized accordion fold with an engineered wraparound tab contains multiple panels of content while remaining compact and easy to distribute. The tab, which tucks into a slit, keeps the piece securely closed. The result is a clean, functional closure that enhances usability without adding bulk. By adapting a proprietary design, the team delivered an efficient solution tailored to a new application.
Precision in Production
Evolution creative solutions managed both structural design and production, ensuring accuracy across every fold, cut, and closure. The accordion format maximized content within a minimal footprint, while the custom tab added function and visual interest.
Results That Engage
The final piece turned a simple brochure into an interactive experience. Its compact size made it easy to carry and share, while the unfolding format encouraged exploration of the WAVE Foundation’s mission and programs.
That combination of structure and execution earned a Gold award for Specialty Finishing from the Graphic Media Alliance Print Excellence Awards. It also demonstrates how existing, proprietary designs can be reused to efficiently and effectively address new marketing challenges.
