SLOWnow! | print & digital design | original photography | logo design
Objective
Create a magazine with the topic of your choice for both print and digital editions. I chose to build the content around the Slow Movement.
Concept
The appropriate personality of the magazine is serious, sophisticated and incorporates a sense of humor. The use of high quality images and abundant white space are used in order to create an artisanal feeling, Since this will be the first U.S. publication devoted solely to the topic it focuses on introducing the varied ways and areas where “slowness” can be applied.
