Project
Create a K-pop magazine that highlights the global influence of Korean culture through a visually engaging publication that combines researched articles, current news, and bold imagery.

In-Depth View
Research/Process
Moodboard with inspiration from existing magazines and playful layouts.
For the body copy, I landed on a condensed font to follow the editorial style.
For the headings, I decided to add a font with extra character, similar to the logo. I decided on an extra-bold slab serif to add more impact to the spreads.
Sketched layouts from moodboard inspirations and developed them into final, polished spreads.
