Brief

As part of my third year course, I was tasked with creating a newspaper or journal for an already existing brand. I challenged myself to exceed the brief by choosing an ambitious brand, and create a flexible and contemporary design system for a newspaper.


Outcome

Choosing to expand the Alexandra Palace branding, the result of this project is a fresh, exciting newspaper that showcases news from the local community, the many areas and events of the Palace, all whilst combining an effective use of infographics and excellent typographic detail.
