Typography System
Havelock Titling is a modern and stylish typeface featuring gently rounded corners and a contemporary appearance. Its clean lines and well-proportioned structure make it an excellent choice for a magazine masthead. The consistent letter heights and the minimalist design of the letter "A," which cleverly omits the middle bar while remaining easily recognizable, showcase how minimalism can enhance visual appeal by simplifying design elements.
Rustica is a straightforward typeface that is incredibly easy to read. Its clean lines and clearly defined letter shapes make it legible even at smaller sizes or from a distance.

Conceptual Development & Rough Drafts
GRID + LAYOUT SYSTEM
I opted to utilize a 9-column grid system for the magazine design due to its adaptable nature and user-friendly features. This system provides a neat and structured layout, offering the flexibility required to craft engaging and visually appealing designs. With the 9-column grid, I can effortlessly create layouts with 2 or 3 columns and adjust the spacing as necessary, improving both readability and aesthetic appeal. The overall style embodies a modern and minimalist approach, emphasizing simplicity and grace to ensure a visually pleasing and immersive reading experience.
FINAL MAGAZINE DESIGN
After carefully analyzing the design, I am happy to share the final design layout for this magazine.
