editorial/layout inspiration

One of my main inspirations when thinking about layout and design in relation to our concept was Ladybeard magazine, an independent artsy publication, with each issue having a clear, unique theme. Their first issue was titled The Sex Issue, and featured interesting, quirky photography, graphic design and illustrations. This publication, as ours aims to, discusses and depicts taboo or secretive subjects e.g. masturbation, in an artistic way with a clear contemporary aesthetic.
