PUBLICATION DESIGN
ARCADE is a northwest quarterly architecture and design publication that promotes and explores quality design in the built environment. A not-for-profit educational organization, ARCADE reinvents its aesthetics every year by having local graphic designers recast the look of the magazine, four issues at a time. Push Design was given the honor of contributing to this design tradition in the 25th anniversary issues. I jumped into the project during the 2nd issue and had an increasing role through issues 25.3 and 25.4 including most interior spreads, the feature in 25.4, and cover designs for both issues.
Inspired by ARCADE's commitment to stretching it's visual boundaries, John Close's novel structure literally turned the magazine on its head, shifting the orientation of the non-feature interior pages into large vertical spreads. This allowed us to create compositions on a much larger, more architectural scale, and opened up new design solutions which reflected the larger themes of the publication itself.
