ASCEND
Goal: Design a short magazine, aka zine, highlighting a topic of choice, exercising your knowledge from typography one.
Ascend Magazine maintains a bold, punchy layout, with a consistent typographic system that anchors each issue. Each month, the imagery within the text shifts—like this feature on Noah Kahan—bringing fresh energy while preserving a recognizable visual identity.
