MUOTO - Magazine Covers

For this project I was required to create 3 covers for the magazine MUOTO. Each piece had to have a different masthead and execution.
    I went for a more geometric and monochromatic approach. Each rectangle is the same colour with different levels of transparency. To further emphasize the cover artwork the feature articles are overlayed on the masthead.
Original illustration by Lee Tourigny.
    This cover places the feature articles higher in the hierarchy, than the masthead, which is placed at the bottom of the cover.
Stock illustration was used on this cover.
    This cover brings the masthead back to a larger size, but places it towards the bottom, to bring more attention to the feature stories. A solid colour background is also used in order to bring more focus to the masthead and the feature stories.
