Field Meridians Observer
Issue 01 - Winter Solstice
Field Meridians
Newspaper
2026
Design and art direction for the Field Meridians Observer, a quarterly neighborhood tabloid newspaper highlighting local news, ecosystems, and multispecies. The Observer is published at the turn of each season and distributed for free to the Crown Heights community. Our first issue is tied to the winter solstice: inside, find a warming soup recipe, the joy of winter birding, and a calendar of the season’s best activities round a snail’s snowy shell. Printed in black and an orange spot color.

Find a copy at your favorite Crown Heights spot and at the Brower Park Library.

Covers
2022 – ongoing

  • The Egg
    Magali Cazo drew four watercolor eggs to accompany this sprawling 32-page story that follows four female subjects as they navigate the exploitative global egg trade industry.

  • Project Maven by Katrina Manson
    enigmatriz collaged ASCII elements over a historic painting of George Washington in the Revolutionary War, illustrating a future where elements of traditional warfare are stripped down and replaced by AI.

  • The Year Ahead 2024 Issue
    Liana Finck took the idea of a maze descending into inscrutable scribbles as a metaphor for the year 2024 and really ran with it. It might not look it, but it’s 100% solvable. I also designed a special landing page for the issue.

  • A Deepfake Horror Story by Olivia Carville and Margi Murphy
    One of the most horrifying stories I've had to art direct. Lulu Lin drew these gorgeous and horrifying faces to go with it.

  • Sextortion by Olivia Carville
    All text bubbles were taken verbatim from in-court documents and how-to sextortion videos online.

  • The DNA Delusion by Kristen V. Brown
    Beautiful helix-people by Saratta Chuengsatiansup to accompany a story on how mass-market genetic testing isn't quite living up to the hype.

  • Barbie Goes To The Movies by Kelly Giblom and Thomas Buckley
    We gathered more than 30 eager dolls to bring this idea to life (the child in me was very pleased). Photographed by Sarah Anne Ward and styled by Andrea Greco.

  • The Cities Issue, 2023
    Illustrated by Jim Stoten and featuring a neon yellow PMS spot.
    Also coded a custom landing page for the entire issue here.

  • The Sneaky Genius of Apple’s AirPods Empire by Max Chafkin
    I made this cover in Photoshop with hundreds of layers of Airpods. There were many iterations made of this idea; however, we ended up going to print with the very first sketch that was pitched.

  • Is There Life After Death For Swiss Banking? by Hugo Miller and Jan-Henrik Foerster
    I came up with the idea of a Swiss-style funeral bouquet, and photo editor Amanda Savinon shot this (after hunting down the best chrysanthemums and hyacinths in the Miami area).

  • The Fall of a Crypto Empire by Olga Kharif, Yueqi Yang, and Hannah Miller
    SBF meets Breaking Bad. Idea executed fantastically by Chanyu Chen.

Ongoing art direction, concepting, and design for a range of cover stories for Bloomberg Businessweek magazine. Here is a selection of covers I especially loved working on.
Texas!
A24
Book
2025
Design and art direction for Texas! — a 624-page, local as all get-out guide to the Lone Star State. Published as a follow-up to Florida! (published in 2022), Texas! is as blue as its successor was pink — an ode to bluebonnets and open skies. The book features places and traditions beloved by the real-life Texans who live there: the cats that patrol the grounds at the Alamo; the drippin’ paint jobs on SLAB cars; and the festivals dedicated to everything from strawberries to mosquitos. 

Texas! is available to purchase from the A24 Shop here.

Erasure by Design
Columbia Books for Architecture and the City
Book
2026
Publication design for Erasure by Design by Mitch McEwen. Erasure by Design tracks the methods, terms, and racial protocols that continue to do the work of displacement, demolition, and extraction into the present day. This book travels back and forth in time through scenes of erasure at three primary locations—Southwest, Washington DC (displacement); North St Louis (demolition), and South Los Angeles (extraction). Erasure by Design shares first person narratives of growing up in the wake of slum clearance—that is, “urban renewal”—in Southwest, Washington DC, while assembling archival references that narrate racialized erasure and its legal and spatial precedents.
