Identity & Editorial Design

Megazine is a publication that features artworks by new and up-coming London-based creatives, aiming to promote the featured artists, giving them exposure within a space for unmediated self-expression through a publication that stands as a testament to the limitless possibilities of the visual arts.

Megazine’s collaterals include the zines, a website, social media profiles, and stickers, with an identity that aims to be approachable and easy-going, through its poketable format, simple inner-pages layout, and bright/friendly colours for its covers.

ISSUE 1

The Information Age has connected us as never before, providing endless potential for encounters and expressions in the digital sphere. Yet, paradoxically we have never been so far apart, so out of sync with direct human interaction and so haunted by a sense of the unreal.

Overwhelmed by information, we thirst for true, tangible connections; to think and to create in a designated space of our own; to share with others the products of our thoughts and to have those thoughts preserved.

MEGAZINE (SPRING 2021) brings together 40 London-based creatives, giving them the space for unmediated self-expression. There is no text or explanation, merely the artworks and the artists themselves, along with links to more of their work at the bottom of the page.

Grounded in a commitment to materiality, this pocket-sized zine is designed to live a physical life in our physical world. It aims to connect; to bring together creative voices and to give them the exposure that they deserve.

An advocate for creativity, popular culture and the perceived value of tangible artwork, this zine is a community, and by holding it in your hand, you too become a real part of it.
