A Zine
NYC: The City That Never Sleeps
Working with the client TSPTR, a UK based clothing brand on a NTU Live Project Brief
THE BRIEF
To create a visually compelling 12 page Zine publication informed by the methodology behind TSPTR's 'Homegrown' collection and interpreted in a way that is personal.
MY RESPONSE
SKILLS
Embracing the creative freedom of this brief, I chose to dedicate my zine to my love for New York, an inspiring city which initially ignited passion for travel. Incorporating my own photography from my trip, alongside a poem I composed reflecting my thoughts and feelings, inspired the personal touches of my zine.

- Photography
- Art Direction
- Layout Consideration
- Editing
- Creative Writing
- Foiling
- White Ink Printing
THE OUTCOME
My final zine showcased my physical creativity, experimenting with the use of gold foiling and a white ink printer, pushing myself outside my comfort zone of digital design. These techniques were strategically used to reflect visual language from Art Deco Architecture, prevalent in many of New York City's iconic landmarks. My final zine was displayed in a zine archive at Nottingham Trent University.
