Megazine

Identity & Editorial Design

Megazine is a printed publication that features artwork by emerging London‑based creatives. My involvement with Megazine includes designing its identity across its printed and digital assets, sourcing and curating the images submitted by the participants, and approaching companies and organisations to create partnerships and sponsorships for the issues releases.

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.A stack of zines, with the cover page showing a list of instagram handles and links, and a large Megazine logo as background.Megazine in a man’s back-pocket.
