From Medical Student to Master Calligrapher
This magazine spread uses a distinct grid structure to display what an Edward Johnston feature article would look like in The Face magazine.
In order to create this spread and cover, I traced a grid structure from an actual The Face magazine which I then brought into InDesign and translated into a digitized, usable grid for my own magazine spread. It uses colors inspired by Johnston's most well-known contribution: the London Underground Transportation typography and logo. It uses directional elements such as lines and blocks of color to allude to the theme of travel.
