Week 4 // Honours Review Assignment: Editorial Design Inspo

The following magazines serve as inspiration due to a strong ethic of experimentation within the design choices made behind each issue.

The often out of the box use of typography within the issues embedded below is a practice I’d like to lean more heavily into, all the while not compromising with readability and accessibility. Besides that, these magazines often stray away from conventional layouts or presentation of visuals, going for a more chaotic, messier sort of editorial design – a disorderly look (albeit in complete order).

The coming of age theme begs for a newer kin of aesthetics to be represented by, therefore – I found myself reaching towards these magazines as inspiration: a sweet mix of “new ugly”, maximalism, etc.
