Velvet: Roses — Editorial Magazine

Velvet: Roses — Editorial Magazine Concept

I recently designed Velvet: Roses, a high-fashion editorial magazine concept focused on celebrating modern Black beauty and refined fashion photography.

This project explores warmth, luxury, and contrast — pairing rich gold accents and structured typography with the stunning work of Adebayo Foluso (@one_tallboy). His photography became the foundation of the visual direction, influencing the colour palette, layout balance, and overall tone of the magazine.

Using Photoshop for image refinement and mockups, and Figma for layout systems and typography hierarchy, I developed a cohesive editorial identity that allows the photography to remain the hero while maintaining a strong, modern brand presence.
