Synthetic Magazine

Synthwave is an electric subgenre of music (and also art) primarily existing in communities online. Synthwave finds most of its inspiration from action, sci-fi and horror media from the 1980s.


For this project, I had to try my best to channel an editor-in-chief of my own fictional magazine called Synthetic. I decided to base my magazine around a tiny corner of the internet devoted to synthwave music and the art and media that comes along with it. This project included a lot of thinking around carrying a consistent look throughout the magazine, while also making sure articles had their own distinct look and feel.
