Deck Template: Coastal Cloud

Crescendo Design Studio partnered with Ember The Agency to create a user-friendly deck template that would unify the look of Coastal Cloud’s presentations.

Template overview

Part 1: Deck Template

We started with a 30,000 ft view of Coastal Cloud’s existing slides and content, and formulated a basic template that could flex across their entire suite.

We created visual systems for agendas, customer stories, and project statuses. We also incorporated “kit of parts” elements like map shapes, icons, and screen mockups.

Part 2: Make the template easily understandable

There will be many users for this new template, so we created a section at the top of the deck with quick overviews and friendly instructions detailing how to use color, type, and photos.
