Editorial design

I designed the cover and back cover, contents, contributors page, editor's letter and the main and short feature layouts. A bold flame masthead, condensed headlines and colour-coded features give each sport its own voice while a shared grid keeps the issue consistent.

Academic project. Photography belongs to its respective owners and is used for educational purposes only.
