Editorial Design Collaborative

Teaming up with three talented illustrators, I designed three different editorial spreads. For each project, we brainstormed general concepts for representing the article both illustratively and typographically together, then worked in tandem as I came up with type layout ideas and adjustments as the they developed the illustrations. Our goal for each project was to have the illustration and the article work together seamlessly to support the topics and themes of each article. Additionally, as the graphic designer, I was charged with the print production of the completed color spreads.
