Report Layout


For my report layout, I want to have it relatively simple, as Umbro isn't an extravagant brand, I wanted the aesthetic of the report to be in-keeping with this. 

This being said, I wanted to incorporate lines into my design, as the Umbro logo is made up of diamonds, I wanted to have the geometric concept within the report. 

E.G.


I felt that this aesthetic would compliment the brand nicely within the report, as it was simplistic yet had a nice effect. Additionally, I wanted to make sure that there was plenty of clear images that related back to what the section was about, as this would provide a visual aid for the reader as well as making it look less plain. 
It also helps give some context to the main body text, as something that is being described in the main body can then be physically seen on an image next to it.
I didn't want the house style to be too busy, as this would draw attention away from the report, and also then wouldn't relate back to Umbros' brand image.

SWOT Analysis A SWOT analysis is a way of analysing a company's S trengths, W eaknesses, O pportunities and T hreats. It is a form of strategic planning for a business so that it can work on re-strategising based on the identified points. The strengths and weaknesses are internal issues within the company, and the opportunities and threats are external issues for the company. I decided to conduct a SWOT analysis on Umbro so that I was able to take my research further. Strengths Umbro are an established brand in their industry.  They have stuck strongly to their core identity. Well known in the football industry. They have attempted to diversify into streetwear.  Continuous discounts (their set prices are lower than competitors as well) Weaknesses They've decreased in popularity.  Limited presence in bricks and mortar retailers. Poor Branding. Not very active/ relevant social media. Not much advertising.  Opportunities  Product differentiation.
