Summary

The title slide: a full-bleed red, blue and black illustrated cityscape with grainy print texture, carrying an oversized cream headline that reads "TRENDS FORECAST '24" set at a slight angle.

Visual description

A dense, flat-color illustration fills the frame in three inks: a hot red ground, cobalt-blue interlocking shapes and near-black voids, all carrying a heavy risograph grain. The forms read as an abstracted city or infrastructure, with awnings, towers and a row of thin spires on the right. A small black "DEPT." wordmark sits top-left and a two-line cream caption, "2024 Trends Forecast: Connection, Creativity & Culture", sits top-right. The headline "TRENDS FORECAST '24" runs across the lower-left in a bold cream condensed display face, tilted slightly off-horizontal so it cuts across the artwork. A small green clover-like shape sits near the bottom edge.

Key takeaway

A three-ink risograph illustration doing all the work of a cover, with type kept to one tilted cream headline plus a tiny logo and a one-line subtitle. The grain and limited palette make a flat illustration feel printed and tactile.

Reuse notes

A strong opener for a trends report, editorial feature, or culture-led brand deck that wants energy and craft over a clean corporate look. Depends on a genuinely good illustration and a tight three-color palette; the tilt only works when the artwork can absorb it. Pairs with the calmer dark and cream interior slides that follow.
