Word. Design and layout.

I have a Word document (8–10 pages). The text is 100% final and cannot be changed. The task is to redesign the layout so the document looks clean, professional, and visually distinctive while still being easy to read and print.
Deliverables:
Editable Word (.docx)
Word template (.dotx) with styles and color theme
Print-ready PDF (A4, fonts embedded)
Requirements (non-negotiable):
Dark cover (charcoal/grey) with bold typography
Seasonal visualization: Summer (16 Apr–30 Sep) and Winter (1 Oct–31 Dec) → must include a timeline near the start and seasonal divider pages
Color palette:
Summer = green/yellow
Winter = red/brown
Neutral = white/grey
SWOT analysis as a 2×2 matrix with four colored blocks (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats)
Include small icons (payments, marketing, staff, sustainability)
All text must remain unchanged
Style: Nordic, clean, minimal, government-friendly but visually distinctive
Files attached (please review before bidding)
1) 2026 – Forretningsplan.docxSource text. Final wording.👉 Use this as the base document. Keep every word, heading and structure unchanged. Build Word styles (Title, H1–H3, Body, Table) around this content.
2) Skærmbillede 2025-09-04.pngVisual inspiration for the cover tone.👉 Reference only. Aim for a dark, modern cover (charcoal/grey). Keep it minimal, readable and print-friendly.
3) Updated Design Brief – Version 3.0.docxFull design requirements.👉 Follow this exactly. It defines seasonal dates, required timeline, seasonal divider pages, color palette, SWOT 2×2 matrix with four boxes, icons, deliverables, and font rules.
How to use the files together:
Read the Design Brief v3.0 first and confirm you understand all requirements.
Layout the Forretningsplan.docx using Word styles. Do not change any text.
Create a dark cover that feels Nordic, clean and professional, with a seasonal cue.
Add a timeline early in the document to show the two seasons with dates.
Add seasonal divider pages (Summer vs Winter) using the given palette.
Build the SWOT 2×2 visual matrix with four blocks and include small, consistent icons where relevant.
