This project focused on designing the Annual Report cover for Oman Electricity Transmission Company SAOG (OETC), a key pillar of Oman’s electricity sector responsible for owning and operating the nation’s main transmission network. The design tells a story of reliability and progress through a clean, modern, and corporate visual approach. Strong geometric forms, balanced typography, and a central, purposeful image highlight the strength and continuity, while the refined color palette stays true to OETC’s brand identity—resulting in a polished and authoritative cover for an official corporate publication.
