Genette Bodsworth

About

Genette makes sure our research reaches the people it’s meant for, turning dense evidence into reports people can read, navigate and use.

She’s a graphic designer and creative artworker with more than 20 years’ experience, specialising in multi-page publications such as reports, magazines, newsletters and brochures. She has run her own studio, GB Creative, since 2011.

On our projects she leads report design and visual communication. She lays out research and evaluation reports, turns data into clear graphs, maps and infographics, and produces accessible digital PDFs that meet WCAG standards, thinking about screen readers, reading order and legibility as well as how a page looks. She also refreshes brands and guidelines and creates marketing templates. Her work covers economic development, national parks, employment and skills, charities and the creative industries.

Genette began her career in agency design studios and in-house marketing, where she built a deep knowledge of print production and artworking. She holds a degree in Surface Pattern Design from the University of Huddersfield.
