The brief

What it had to do

I set myself the brief of a small independent travel magazine that wants each feature to feel different while the issue still reads as one magazine.

From a photo essay over Cappadocia to a compact Lisbon city guide, the pace changes from spread to spread without losing the magazine's voice.

Inside the InDesign file

How it is built

  • Feature headlines pairing a condensed capital with an italic serif, repeated from Kyoto to Lisbon
  • A different column grid for each feature, from a full-bleed photo essay to a dense city guide
  • Contents, editor's letter, a long essay and guide pages in one InDesign file

“The condensed capital and the italic serif are the magazine's signature. The photographs and column structure change on every feature; the headline pairing never does.”

What this shows

Issue 05 starts from the same file: new copy and photographs drop into a hierarchy that is already set.

World of Travel is a self-initiated magazine issue.
