NOOKIE media pack

https://issuu.com/hollyeliza/docs/media_pack_nookie_final_2

In our finished media pack, I wanted to capture the fun and lighthearted mood we want our publication to create, and so the art direction and overall layout and design has this feel. The media pack illustrates our thoughts and plans for fashion direction, the flat plan of the issue, promotional strategies and advertising.

editorial/layout inspiration

ladybeard-the-sex-issue

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.
