Poster-zine

So I had a brainwave while in the shower this morning. Strange how these things happen, I wasn't even thinking about anything design related. It's amazing my brain was switched on pre-coffee fix, the cogs usually clunk quite a bit that time of the day! Anyway, the brainwave I had was to do with making my own sort of publication, a design / arts magazine of sorts. Not a magazine in a traditional sense, but a folded poster. It's purely an artistic exercise and could be a rather expensive one but fun none the less, especially if I could collaborate with a few others. I'm sure something like this has been done before but I can't remember anything specifically.

I took an A4 piece of paper and made a mock-up of the poster-zine. Ideally this would be done in A1 or A2 format. It would be double sided too.




This photo gives a better idea of how it's folded out. You could even play around with optical illusions with the folds.


Poster-zine unfolded.

I'll start putting together some conceptual ideas for the Poster-zine and post them up soon. If you want to collaborate with me on the Poster-zine, let me know.
