The New York Issue

For the cover of our New York issue about live performance, we invoked the visual language of event flyers to give it a sense of hustle, grit, and energy—the same qualities that performers need to make it, and that define the city itself.

The 1619 Project

Four hundred years after the first enslaved Africans were brought to the colony of Virginia, most Americans remain woefully unaware of slavery’s centrality to the founding of their country. In August 2019, The New York Times Magazine launched The 1619 Project, marking the 400th anniversary of the start of American slavery with a multimedia editorial initiative that sought to reframe the way we think, discuss, and understand this institution and its aftermath. The project catalogued the legacy of slavery in contemporary American society, as well as the contributions of black Americans in actualizing the country’s founding ideals. While the magazine issue focused on how slavery still affects key facets of America, including modern capitalism, the prison system, and rush-hour traffic, the broadsheet section focused on the history of American slavery itself. Using objects from the National Museum of African American History and Culture, the section offered a visual history of slavery that most Americans haven’t learned, and an essay on why that history has not been accurately taught.

Great Performers

Each year, Times critics A. O. Scott and Wesley Morris select the year’s best film actors to be honored in our Great Performers issue. This year, photographer Jack Davison was commissioned to create raw black-and-white portraits of each performer in natural, unadorned light. Using a design inspired by the repetitive and deconstructed movement found in film stills, each actor’s last name was used to create bold typographic headlines that harked back to old Hollywood. The spliced nature of the letterforms lent themselves to dynamic animations on both web and mobile.

Munich Urban Colab—Space for the Unimagined

UnternehmerTUM and the City of Munich have joined forces to build Munich Urban Colab, a new hub for Smart City Solutions. Startups, corporates, and creatives will be working on urban challenges. This bookazine, a symbiosis of magazine and book, was designed to communicate the vision during the construction phase. The triad in the name is reflected in the structure of the bookazine: the interplay of the three parts, Munich-Urban-Colab and startups-corporates-creatives. The open binding with visible thread is reminiscent of a book, while the page design is as dynamic as a magazine. Imagery and typography also reflect the triangular theme.

The New York Issue

Our annual New York Issue was devoted to live performance. We featured twelve performers — a Metropolitan Opera singer, a subway dancer, and a sword swallower among them—who epitomize the spirit of the city’s creative class. A vivid, typographic cover, inspired by DIY performance flyers, sets the tone for the issue, in which the photojournalist Brenda Ann Kenneally’s photographs of each performer interact with bespoke typography that captures the chaos, energy, and panache of New York City.

Fukt Magazine #18: The Systems Issue

“System” is the theme of the eighteenth issue of Fukt Magazine for contemporary drawing. Artistic processes, methods, concepts, and mindsets were investigated through interviews and extensive sequences of imagery. The typographic magazine cover embraces the topic of the issue in a playful manner, inviting the viewer to turn the attached paper discs to de- and reconstruct the word “system.” The interactive aspect of the three rotating paper discs invites the reader to play and question our reliance on systems and its simultaneous frailty.

Commotion

The magazine’s title, Commotion, comes from the belief that artists and designers create through exploration and investigation, taking inspiration from vast and varied sources—which can be chaotic, noisy, and confusing process, but always rewarding. The magazine is designed to take readers through the artist’s journey. We developed a core design language that is as creative and dynamic as MICA and its alumni. The publication increased engagement and graduate enrollment, but what we are most proud of is that it seamlessly connected the disparate groups to create a strong experience and network that extends well beyond the college years.
