The Edible Magazine

An 8 page magazine with a food concept, featuring original photography and graphics, as well as two single page advertisments.

The goal for this project was to create a magazine with a concept of my choice. In search of a funky but clean style I neatly organised my subjects before I took photos. The photography was acompanied by brightly colored graphics to give off an energetic/fun aesthetic

With a food related concept in mind I developed a creative name for my publication. The Edible Magazine was a fun name that complemented my design style well, and I put a fun twist on this concept by adding a mascott in the bottom right corner of some pages giving him a bright yellow speech bubble for ironic interactive quotes. This bright yellow speech bubble shape was a major catalist for the publications graphic elements.

Knowing my photography had to be vibrant to match the the whieght of my graphics I took insperation from colorfull foods like breakfast toasts and acai bowls. This made it easy to choose a theme and prompts for the stories my magazine would hold. To henhace the realism of my magazine I also added two single spread advertisments. Adapting to brand guidelines and typographic layouts asociated with the advertiser was key for this step.
