Magazine Layout


Magazine layout project. Piece of text used called ‘Gothic Horror’. Columns used around text, and text designed into column shapes are to represent the utilitarianism and control during the time of Nazi Germany, whilst ‘Gothic’ typography was being designed and formed by Adolf Hitler. These ‘Gothic’ typefaces were to be used in Nazi propaganda.

Forest of Words


Forest of Words. Each word is individually cut out using a scalpel on thin card, scored on one side, so that the text can be folded up and stand freely. All text is an extract from a book called ‘The Reader’. The intensity of all of the words placed together, is to symbolise the crowded and intimidating emotions that the young boy in the book is feel, given his situation in the story. Photographed on black backdrop, so that words would ‘pop’, given the contrasts in colour.
