Indiana Review Redesign

Redesign Direction

After skimming through the old designs, my partner, Isabelle, and I decided that the IR book needed significantly more white space. We also wanted the book to become a product that was aesthetically pleasing to the eye, hence the minimalist design. Additionally, we wanted our cover to be eye-catching and interactive; thus, we chose to incorporate a die cut. Internally, our grid also had to be very flexible to allow for future designers to play around with the typesetting. Isabelle took the lead on the logo redesign, and I turned my attention toward setting up our base grid and typesetting the stories, given my expertise in InDesign.
