Magazine is back from the printers. 20cm by 20cm on 160gsm matt and perfect bound. Turned out pretty good.
A 2nd take on my final for the magazine layout. I ended up changing the typeface for the interview in order to distinguish between, but also, match the new typeface for exaggerated quotes. I removed most of the photographs that were on the previous and added illustrations in their place. I much prefer this overall layout, it has a cleaner sleek edge to it and stronger pieces. I’m still unsure whether to fill more of the negative space or leave it as is.
A layout that I think I’m near to completion of. I think it may need a few textures as the black is too bold. The typeface for exaggerated quotes, from looking at it now, is something else that could be edited. I’ll also have to increase the exposure of the photos as with a test print they came out far too dark, or maybe remove the photographs altogether and create digitalised images. To me, it looks like 3 design styles that are just stuck together that don’t quite fit.
Manipulating outlines of letters in Illustrator through copy and paste methods to create patterned lines at 90 degree angles. Letters shown here are “P” & “A”. I like the spontaneity and unknowing conclusion of each one.
Disconnecting and splicing lines in Photoshop to create a visual effect of the side of a building for my magazine layout of chaos in the city.

iliketotakeitforajoyride asked: Hey, saw your kinetic typography. Do you mind helping me out with a project?...if you have the time. :)
Oh, sure. What’s up?
Several design works by Metric72. I like the clean, graphic look and the well-balanced use of space in these poster designs. This piece builds / is a realisation on an initial ‘chaotic city centerfold’ idea that I have for a spread in my interview layout.
