5 graphic trends of 2025 for your regulatory reports

In 2025, create innovative, sustainable and visually impactive reports. Here are 5 advices to make them as readable as aesthetic.

Nature as background

In 2025, nature should be more represented in visuals with the “Outdoor Calling” trend. Organic textures and natural color palettes, such as soft greens and earthy tones (brown, taupe, ochre, etc.), reflect a strong ecological commitment. Why won’t you adopt this style in your sustainability reports? Using this style and with the evolution of the NFRD towards the CSRD,  your reports will be coherent, meaningful, sustainable, aesthetic and compliant with ESRS criteria.

Expand your reports and shape your wildest ideas. Thanks to the time savings and techniques that AI brings, you will be able to focus on the substance, while offering a striking and modern presentation.

Retro is the New Cool

Retrofuturism is everywhere: pixel art, Polaroid textures, fanciful typography… Revisiting the 60s to 80s design, this style brings a dose of nostalgia to the modern designs of 2025. Was your company founded during these years? This is the perfect opportunity to revisit your identity through visually striking reports. Use vintage and modernity to reflect the evolution of the company!

Maximalist VS Minimalist

2024 was influenced by minimalism and its fancy designs, but in 2025, let the maximalist style shine! Bold patterns, explosive colors and very rich layouts: maximalism attracts the eye and has a strong visual impact. This trend highlights excess and must not be seen as an overload, but as an opportunity to capture attention. In your reports, highlight important data and key points, using rich and contrasting elements.

Bold and accessible typography

Sculptural letters, 3D effects, captivating animations… In 2025, strong contrasts and clear typography will be at the heart of the trend. However, accessibility, a key point of the new ESG criteria in your CSRD compliant reports, remains at the core of concerns. WCAG (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines) standards also influence the choice of typography and colors. These standards proposed by the french republic, aim to ensure that information is easily understandable for everyone, including people with visual impairments. Using this approach will allow you to comply and reach a wider audience while making your documents both captivating and inclusive.
