Brand Identity & Layout Design
Thomas Perri
The cover displays a painting from one of the artists I had interviewed in the issue.
JPEG "The Irrelevant Magazine" is a magazine company that I am apart of, a group of friends & I had the idea to create a magazine that is almost an art installation but also with random interviews of people we know, involving poetry, painting, photography & more. I designed everything there is to the first issue which is what I am displaying.
Here is a portion of the poetry section, using 3D graphics & creative typography layout, I think it should be a fine time to experience poetry like this for the readers.
Left page makes no sense, that is the point. Right Page is the artist who is showcased on the cover.
I drew this bee when I was a kid.
Stacked letter custom typography along with some photo editing and a nice proportionate layout = this.
We wanted to mirror the back. Yes, thats a real image of the back of one of his paintings.
What we really wanted to do with JPEG is make it as fun and stupid ( irrelevant ) as possible. The name is self explanatory and as for the logo design, I was inspired by graffiti. I think we might change the JPEG logo for every issue we create, but this might be like one of our main ones if we choose to do merch. Issue release ??/??/??!
