This was a project for a Senior Communication Design course focusing on the concept of a design system, including identity design, typography, illustration, photography, and information design. The objective for the publication was establishing a way to communicate MIAD (Milwaukee Institute of Art & Design)'s contributions and integration to the community around it. It highlights the ways in which artists and designers help others and make a difference in an effort to make the world a better place. Specifically, the magazine aimed to focus on the efforts of the Service Learning course offered through MIAD, which emphasizes the importance of service learning and pro bono work to support important causes.
The design concept (theme) for this specific version of the magazine is the idea of "reflection" -- which varies in interpretation from the way that a bridge would reflect into the water below it, the concept of personal reflection, and a design system of reflective elements.
