Illuminated
This magazine, designed in Adobe InDesign, explores the intersection of graffiti and wayfinding,
focusing on how the original intent and raw expression of graffiti often gets lost in translation when it's absorbed into formal design systems. The concept was inspired by Ellen Lupton’s ideas in Text and the research of Ganoti Roula and Laskari Iro in The Importance of Environmental Graphic Design in Urban Spaces. Through experimental layouts and typographic contrasts, the magazine reflects on how urban visual language is constantly negotiated between authenticity and control.
