Magazine Editorial, icon development and layout design
Brief:
1. Create a set of icons for the Top 10 hiking destinations for the Monocle Magazine.
2. Use a similar style to create spot illustrations and a
3. Design a cover for Monocle magazine in which the hiking article is featured.
Skills tested:
The ability to create icons digitally, layout design, cover design, working in the style of the client (colours, typography, layouts) editorials, illustration for magazine (how would this further translate to a digital production? through the use of grids, this is much more plausible).
The icons were developed further in Adobe Illustrator, using a grid. Each icon represents a different hike location. For the cover, repeat patterns were created using the icons. The colours were inspired by the shades frequently used in the Monocle magazine.
Spot illustration-made by making patterns with the icons.
