Project Overview
Mindful Made magazine features artists that allow nature to be the foundation and driving force of their creative work. As an avid nature lover myself, I wanted to create an artisan-style magazine that reflected the way that nature inspires me to slow down and appreciate beauty in an unhurried way. The goal of this project was to improve my inDesign skills, work with type hierarchies, and practice print layout. To tie together the various artists, I chose a bright palette of colors like rust, lime green, and deep teal that echo nature and outdoorsy brands. Hand-drawn elements throughout the design add playfulness and authenticity. I loved the creative freedom that this project allowed me to have, and I feel like it strengthened by skills in working with a grid and using lots of type.
