LAYOUT
In this edition of 'Motion', the aim is to lead readers on a cohesive journey through the world of alternative, vintage, and underground street style. The seamless flow of the magazine is achieved by connecting articles and merging sections, with dedicated attention given to each topic. The overall rhythm of the publication is carefully crafted so that readers can transition from one section to the next without disruption or distraction.
This project was completed as part of the Branding & Identity curriculum at the London College of Contemporary Arts. The aim of this work was to showcase various aspects of Brick Lane, appealing to both locals and outsiders alike.As the art director, I was responsible for all elements of the publication, including typeface selection, layout design, composition, and overall aesthetic. The final result is a striking representation of the vibrant community and culture of Brick Lane.

Considering the busy lifestyle of Londoners, the name 'Motion' was chosen for the magazine to imply movement and convey the message of informing readers about the latest street trends. Additionally, the name was selected to allow for future expansion into different neighborhoods and streets of London without the need to alter the logo, brand or artistic style. This way, the magazine can be easily dedicated to different subjects, providing better profit potential if necessary.
Visiting Brick Lane market on a Sunday is always a delight. Although there are regular stalls selling typical market items, the real attraction lies in the second-hand stalls. Here, you can find a variety of unique items, from collectibles and vintage clothing to retro accessories and furniture pieces. It is still possible to snag a great deal or purchase something truly one-of-a-kind. Additionally, there are often street performers and entertainers throughout the market, adding to the lively atmosphere. Inside the Old Truman Brewery building, visitors can explore Upmarket and Backyard, both indoor markets that feature galleries, exhibitions, shops, bars, restaurants, and cafes.
