The Magazine Shop

The magazine shop was the first place i went to get inspiration after receiving the project brief. I analysed the front covers closely to see what I was aesthetically drawn to the most so I could infuse the same ideas in my own magazine. I noticed how I preferred magazines that had short, bold fonts. Close up portrait shots and minimal layout and text. The four magazines I decided to focus on were Garage, WRPD, Heroine and Zine, I bought a copy of each to look at photography, styling, layout, and written content. I also used imagery from the magazines to create collages in my sketchbook. My favourite magazine was Heroine, I was attracted to the unique design and bold collages that consisted throughout the mag.
