Behind the design:
Concept, type design, and art direction for
"The Foodie 40" feature story opening page.
Food Stylist: Lara Miklasevics
CONCEPT / IDEA:
Opening editorial story design to tie in several of the elements and places featured in the “Foodie 40” bucket list.
> I picked up several food items and artifacts from various restaurants to use in the shot (coaster, coffee cup, diner check).
> Selected a typeface I liked for the headline, created and cut out a stencil for the type to be made out of Minnesota wild rice.
> Worked with a food stylist to clean up lettering, also add caramel drizzle to cake, and coffee stain mark.
