New Scientist Rebrand



Another 7 day brief has been the design of New Scientist Magazine. We have to design our own grid systems and layouts as well as a new masthead, front cover, editorial page and 2 DPS's.

We are given an article as the main feature of the magazine which is about the relation between creativity and mental health problems. My idea of creative thing is about it being ' outside the box '. The box represents the brain and the ideas all fall into place as boxes can be built, emptied, opened up, overfilled in the same way a brain could be.

Box graphics lend themselves to my idea about fragility etc and i will be screen printing a limited edition full front cover onto card to replicate this. It is a 3D interactive cover that can be built into an actual box if required...and the packaging will reflect the fragility by having fragile tape around bubble wrap. I will post images of the final outcomes soon...
