The teams of the in­ter­na­tional net­work of Médecins sans Fron­tières work in over 60 coun­tries and help vic­tims in emer­gen­cies. In its an­nual re­port, the well-known re­lief or­gan­i­sa­tion pre­sents its pro­jects, as well as facts and data about its op­er­a­tions. Ex­am­ples are given to ex­plain why and how sup­port is pro­vided. The de­sign, based on a cor­po­rate de­sign con­cept by Moni­teurs, uses colours, ty­pog­ra­phy and im­ages in a way that cre­ates a “read­ing at­mos­phere”, which makes it easy for the reader to en­ter the ma­te­r­ial. The goal of the de­sign is to have lots of in­for­ma­tion that is in­ter­est­ing and easy to dis­cover. For this, data graph­ics were also de­vel­oped.

Médecins sans Fron­tières is a No­bel Peace Prize win­ning emer­gency med­ical or­gan­i­sa­tion that op­er­ates in con­flict zones around the world. Since 2000, Moni­teurs has been re­spon­si­ble for the cor­po­rate de­sign of the Ger­man branch. The year 2014 has seen the or­gan­i­sa­tion sharpen its im­age: clear, in­de­pen­dent, pro­fes­sional – these are the es­sen­tial at­trib­utes. Moni­teurs’ task is to re­flect these at­trib­utes in print. The cor­po­rate de­sign is kept open in or­der to be able to speak specif­i­cally to the dif­fer­ent tar­get groups. The colour red and the con­cise ty­pog­ra­phy, de­vel­oped for Médecins sans Fron­tières by Moni­teurs – a “rough” head­line cut, based on the font Fago – have be­come im­por­tant dis­tin­guish­ing fea­tures for the or­gan­i­sa­tion.
