Progetto Grafico
Editorial Design
Capabilities
The aim was to refresh the graphic design of the magazine "Progetto Grafico" issue 30, starting from a creative concept and declining it visually. I had to deal with several relevant factors, such as the seriality of the publication and its dual usage in Italian and English.
Abstract
Editorial
My desire is to bring out the importance of the subject of graphic design, which until now has not received the recognition it deserves in the magazine. This goal is conveyed through a design that is clear, clean, researched in detail, and precise, so that the design intentions are immediately apparent.
I implemented a grid based on golden ratios to achieve balanced pages. I took a dynamic approach for both text and images. The grid was designed to include generous white space while maintaining well-defined line spacing. Color was chosen according to the central theme of the magazine, keeping consistent with the idea of a series of thematic issues. For example, this issue 30 focuses on the theme of "Open Technologies." Color is used to identify each issue, such as on the spine or in the table of contents. In addition, the color palette varies in saturation and hue to differentiate the two languages, Italian and English.
