Overview

A four-issue editorial system for a quiet quarterly on material culture, printed in two-colour on uncoated stock.

§ 01

The Challenge

Design a magazine that reads like an object — one that feels considered on the newsstand and intimate in the hand.

§ 02

The Approach

A single wide-set serif, a rigid baseline grid, and photography allowed to breathe across full-bleed spreads.

§ 03

The Outcome

The redesigned system doubled subscription retention and was shortlisted at the D&AD 2025 Editorial category.
