Presentation mockups. The artwork is the delivered artwork.

The brief

Bank ads come with copy you can’t cut: rates, disclaimers, compliance lines.

The work is making that content sit inside a composition instead of being bolted onto the bottom of one.

Approach

Design around the constraint rather than against it. Fixed zones for mandatory copy mean legal text has a home from the first layout instead of arriving late and breaking the hierarchy. What is left is a clear space for one message, which is all a banking asset gets anyway.

Impact

Posts that kept compliance happy and still went out within hours of a moment.
