The New Modality

The New Modality is a publication produced by Editor-in-Chief Lydia Laurenson. With topics ranging from hosting safer psychedelic parties, to transhumanism, to Afrofuturism in science fiction literature, I was inspired by the discussion and thought leadership happening across a far ranging diversity of topics.

A 160-page magazine is no small undertaking, and each article was its own design challenge. I decided on a rainbow color palette paired with bold black and white typography to be the continuous thread, while sourcing and hiring illustrators and photographers to tell each article in a unique way.

I was especially thrilled by the holographic cover treatment, which made for a truly one-of-a-kind print artifact.
