Objective


Design a publication for a chosen topic including a wordmark logo, cover, table of contents, an interview article, and a feature article both atleast 3 spreads in length. 


Concept Research




Wordmark Development


Sketching by hand allowed for quick ideation. The final concept focused on a slow yet forceful evolution from light and narrow to bold and wide at the “è” which is naturally emphasized due to it’s accent.




Refinement







Workmark Final



Layout Development


With thorough exploration into each spread, considering fonts, grids, and image treatments, a concept for each article of the publication was established and iterated on. Shown is a very small portion of all work done.






System


Once the final designs were created, a specimen sheet is created to articulate the system that runs throughout the publication. This document ensures consistency throughout and between issues, and  speeds up the design process for future work on the project.
