PHL ZOO POSTERS
Typography in action on a 24x36 inch somewhat autobiographical newspaper. Yes I understand that this is my senior thesis project and it’s still the top project on my page a year and a half later, but common now, let me use this project to get a job or something. Take a trip into my mind, my design aesthetic, and my not-so-good rambling stories.
The Process
For this project, I wanted to create a document that pushes the boundaries while also showcasing refined and elegant typography. Measuring 36x28 inches when opened, this unconventionally sized paper uses unique compositions built from justified type, bold headlines, photo collage, and illustration. In order to fill space and add content, this gazette focuses on personal interests, stories, interviews, and anecdotes. The ultimate goal was to create a document that blends the line between fine art and graphic design while maintaining its functionality.
The process of creating this project was long and difficult. I feel that I have learned a lot about typography, history, and the reasoning behind the newspaper aesthetic. Creating content, allowing function, balancing compositions, setting type, choosing fonts, pairing Illustrations, sizing, and printing were all challenges that I had to overcome and reevaluate continuously throughout its development. The process opened my eyes to the details of a large-scale publication and the many small moving parts that all come together to create a unique and historically important object.
