The challenge with designing this editorial was to avoid overtly highlighting the subject matter of cannabis. To achieve this, I introduced a patterned background and incorporated textures and vectors to create a modern, cutting-edge aesthetic. To keep the editorial light and playful, I utilized pastel colors throughout the design. Together, these elements help to create a unique visual identity that appeals to a broad audience while also subtly nodding to the content of the editorial.
The goal of this editorial was to highlight the vibrant fashion scene in Toronto, with a specific focus on iconic destinations such as Casa Loma, Toronto Botanical Gardens, Spadina Museum, and the Royal Ontario Museum. To achieve this, I designed a clean and minimalist layout that allows the photography to take center stage. The understated design ensures that the images are the star of the show, while also providing just enough structure to create a cohesive visual narrative. By letting the stunning photography speak for itself, this editorial captures the essence of Toronto's fashion scene and the beauty of its most beloved landmarks.
