NEXUS MAGAZINE DESIGN PROCESS
JMU has a literary arts magazine that showcases different forms of art, including graphic design, theater, photography, painting, etc.
When I was given this assignment, I wanted to showcase different literary pieces and drawings I created in high school as a slight deviation from my graphic design and studio art projects.
At first I wanted to keep the color schematics dramatic and dark so that the content would pop out more, however I later decided that I was going to achieve a balance between different themes– light and dark, soft and sharp, focused and blurred, etc.
