Art & Culture
Magazine

Concept: Creation of a print and digital magazine about art, culture, and Brazilian society from the perspective of its crossroads—encounters, mixtures, contradictions. Each edition explores a theme in depth through essays, interviews, poetry, and visual arts.

Target: Readers interested in culture, such as artists, researchers, university students, and a Brazilian urban, cosmopolitan audience.

Challenge: To develop the graphic design of an edition, demonstrating mastery of editorial design for dense content, where the text takes center stage but dialogues with imagery in an integrated and sophisticated manner.

Target: Readers interested in culture, such as artists, researchers, university students, and a Brazilian urban, cosmopolitan audience.

Typography, grid and layout

grid and layout

The project balances sophistication and accessibility. The serif typography ensures comfortable reading for long texts, while the spacing and careful placement of images create a visually rich experience without competing with the text. Regarding the defined grid, two columns were established with a 1cm space between them, allowing for a comfortable and spacious reading area, as well as enabling images to be placed in proportion to the text.
