Publication

Publication design for the 50th issue of MIT School of Architecture’s peer-reviewed journal Thresholds. The theme of the issue, Before | After, deals with the poignancies of the passage of time: looking backward and forward, at pasts, past futures, and present possibilities. As an allusion to the murky thresholds of “before” and “after”, the book features a neon red PMS spot color that ebbs and flows from the cover art through every single red in the book in fluctuating amounts—whether it’s through archival imagery, present-day photographs, differing gradient floods, handwritten elements, or even the threads in the Swiss-bound spine—serving as a metaphor for in-between moments that hint at the future and remind us that the past is sticky, persistent, and, in many ways, always with us.

Thresholds 50 is published by MIT Press, and jointly edited by Jola Idowu, Antonio Pacheco, Ardalan Sadeghikivi, and Meriam Soltan. Lithography by Marjeta Morinc.

Magazine

Magazine redesign and art direction for Tracksmith’s Meter Magazine, a longform publication about the hidden side of running culture. Overhauling its original broadsheet format, the redesign sought to lengthen shelf life of the magazine, featuring a printed cloth tape spine with the table-of-contents running off the edges to allow for readers to quickly browse past issues at a glance.

Completed with Doubleday and Cartwright: creative direction by Aaron Amaro, and photo editing by Shane Lyons. Special thanks to Rafa Oliveira and Andy Waterman of the Tracksmith team. Photography of magazines by Shane Lyons. 

Identity

Identity design and illustrations for The Walker’s annual Skyline Mini Golf event of 2022 which features a ten-hole, artist-designed course on the rooftop of The Walker.

Designed in collaboration with Studio Elana Schlenker. Illustrations by me, and typeface by Benoit Bodhuin.

Zine

Zine designed and photo-illustrated as a print accompaniment to Portraits of Her, a vinyl album created by Vans and Record Store Day in celebration of groundbreaking women in the music industry. Risoprinted in 5 colors: Scarlet, Aqua, Yellow, Black and Metallic Gold by Risolve and featuring matching metallic gold foil stamp on the cover.

Creative direction by Bruno Luglio and the Vans team.
