Maria’s Place
Print Design Case Study
Maria’s Place is dedicated to equipping caregivers and seniors with essential tools for optimal care. They partnered with WiT Group to develop a Cinco de Mayo activity booklet, pioneering as one of the first translated resources tailored for both English and Spanish-speaking audiences. Separately from the booklet project, we also managed Google Ads and implemented SEO enhancements for Maria’s Place’s website. These efforts were aimed at expanding their reach and enhancing engagement among diverse caregiver and senior communities.
I decided to focus the cover on a green vibrant cactus, catus’ are known for their ability to live long 200 year lives, living in harsh environments, and still blooming and growing. I think the catus is a cute analogy for what Maria’s Place provides seniors, the ability to keep growing.
