Today, I decided to step out of my comfort zone and try my hand at Magazine Cover Design for the first time.
I focused on using bold and structural typography to guide the eye and create a strong anchor.
I’d love to know—does this minimalist approach stop your scroll?

Design exploration
Tool: Figma
Grid type: Column
Design Prompt: Luxury residential interior design studio. Editorial restraint. One serif typeface. Photography as texture, not decoration. Every element earns its place or gets removed.
Client: Ruang Studio, a Singapore-based interior design practice working exclusively on private homes, penthouses, and landed properties. Four to six projects a year. Both founders on every one.
The challenge was designing a site that filters out the wrong clients before they even reach the form. Positioning, copy, and image selection do the qualification work.
Good work
Took a break from clean SaaS templates to experiment with heavy typography and dark mode.
Tried to channel the tense vibe from the movie "Whiplash". Still tweaking the spacing.
Does the copy land, or is it too much?
looks fantastic, great work
Made this with THE COVER, a Morphic workflow that turns any product into a magazine cover.
Two inputs: your product photo and a magazine reference for the vibe you want. That's it.
Inspired by the Diptyque Damascena candle + a bold editorial style reference → MAISON magazine cover in under 15 minutes.
Try it on any product, A candle, a perfume, your skincare, your brand product. The workflow does the rest.
