"Color Mosaic" Free Presentation Template (July 2013)

"Color is to the eye what music is to the ear." 
                               - Louis Comfort Tiffany

Chicago is graced with numerous installations by Louis Comfort Tiffany Design & Decorating Studio. 

Just to name a few: Marquette Building, Macy's on State St. (fka Marshall Field & Co.), Palmer House Hilton and Chicago Cultural Center. The Richard H. Driehaus Museum is hosting an exhibition this fall that will feature sixty works by Tiffany and associates, visit the Driehaus Museum website for more information.

Today, I'm celebrating being certified for the Historic North Loop Tour, in which treasures like those mentioned above are a big part of the tour give by Chicago Architecture Foundation. 

Beginning this month, I'm applying my design to the Universal Pitch Deck format. Remember this my "ultimate 12-slide structure for any presentation" which I wasn't implementing on previous templates. Thus the master designer was the inspiration for this month's {free} presentation template. Download via the SlideShare link below.

Same Product, Multiple Platforms

The last few months I've been managing more transitional and integrative projects; adding an additional phase for web-based/mobile components.

For example:

• Annual report 10-K wrap and mini-website for same.
• Corporate website HTML reworked for Wordpress.
• Traditional book layout to e-reader version for Kindle.

Going forward, I'll be asking how we can extend a brochure, presentation and profile (e-book) across platforms for your audience.

This month's FREE Powerpoint template, a business-focused design with a blue and gray palette and clean sans serif typeface.  Easily drop in your own information and logo on the master slide. (Free Download via SlideShare)
