challenges

The most challenging part of this magazine was designing a cool, hip aesthetic while keeping it clean and minimal. This magazine had many limitations on the design, which was challenging to work around.

This magazine was designed using white and black as the main colors with accents of purple to unify the color found in all the images. On the cover, a purple bar covers the text that would say “DESIGNED” to replace with the funky rewritten version “DEZIN’D” where the differences are highlights on the purple.
