The Process

Ideation

Design Style:
❖ Lively, Playful yet Cohesive
The design style should be unique and eye-catching, but still have a structured formatting. The lively and playful design style communicates the type of design style that the designer used in her works. 2 of her designs that reflect this design style will be used in the magazine.

Final Design

Magazine Cover:

For the front page of the magazine, a picture of Elaine Cohen is embedded in a circle that's cutting off the page, in order to convey a lively and playful design style.

Inside Pages 2-3:

In order to properly convey Elaine Cohen's design style, images that were used for each page are embedded in a cut-off circle. The gestalt idea of closure and the principle of continuance is applied.
The text wraps around the circle designs made to create a playful effect. The images used were designs made by Elaine Cohen, and the images have the same matching colors, creating a color scheme for pages 2-3. The borders of the circles are blue to connect to the front page's blue colors scheme.
