Design: Shiho Sugita
Objective
Make a concept for a new magazine and design a page layout according to the concept.
Magazine Overview
It’s a lifestyle magazine issued by a Toronto-based publishing company. It covers a wide range of themes, from features related to Toronto and Canada to global trends and culture, and introduces the things that make life fun for people. The magazine brings an exciting and innovative angle of things so that people can discover something they have never seen and sensations they have never felt before. Topics covered include entertainment, art, culture, travel, wellness, fashion, and gourmet.
The issue feature is Fogo Island.
Target Audience
- People in their 20s to 40s who are interested in art and culture.
- Live in Canada.
- Gender is not limited.
Creative Strategy
A simple design with a bit of playfulness and a contemporary feeling. A design that people can feel accessible to.
I chose a white background and black text, with headlines and point colours where needed to stand out.
The overall structure is simple, with an emphasis on legibility and readability. I used lines and colours to smoothly move the reader’s eye and make the reading experience stress-free. I made the photos as large as possible to show the majestic Fogo Island’s architecture and nature.
