As Lead Designer, I was responsible for the merchandise design, creative direction, and editorial design itself.
For Issue 003, the design theme was a well-loved school journal. The band on the cover of this issue was Laundry Day, their cover photoshoot included them in school uniforms. I wanted the issue’s doodles on the margins and shiny stickers to tie in well and make it fun and nostalgic.
The design project was mixed media and included stickers, tape, crumpled notebook papers, newspaper clippings, and doodles from multiple members of the team at Ease Up.
The release of the issue came with additional merchandise such as stickers, shirts, and tote bags. On our socials, we use graphics to announce blog posts and promote the paper and digital issue.
