Hello!
I work at Yandex as a Senior Designer, also carrying out the responsibilities of an Art Director.
I supervise projects aimed at internal and external HR department communications.

Yandex internal communications
About the project:
Yandex employees use office items daily: they pour coffee, use fridges and air conditioners. The problem was that all instructions and guides had been done hastily by non-designers. The style was chaotic, the content would not be updated for years, and it didn’t help employees at all.

The goal:
Creating a unified communication system, so that the office could “speak” to employees in an understandable language. Posters and navigation should hang in strictly designated places, and new information should be easy to add.
My role in the project:
The project was completely under my art direction.
I wanted the style to be simple, yet friendly. The muted red color would draw attention but would not scream.

My responsibilities:

Art direction:
  • I formulated the concept
  • I worked with contractors, trained them to work in this style, and adjusted their results

Design work
  • Illustrations and a guide about them
  • Templates for posters

Results:
Now all Yandex offices (20 offices in Russia, even more in 12 other countries) use this communication system. A pool of Illustrators is trained to work in this particular style. 
The amount of unnecessary office equipment has decreased.
