Dive In Gorge

In designing "Gorge Cooking Magazine," the primary goal was to create an engaging and visually appealing way to showcase cooking recipes. Drawing inspiration from cherished childhood recipes and experiences, the magazine embraces a nostalgic style that is complemented by whimsical illustrations. The design features a dual colour palette of blue, red, and off-white, all set against a soft off-white backdrop, which enhances the overall aesthetic and draws the reader's eye.

 

The final product is an 82-page cooking magazine that includes over 25 delicious recipes. To further enrich the content, I designed two half-page advertisements and one full-page ad, each fully illustrated to maintain the magazine's whimsical charm. Additionally, visually appealing dividers crafted using Illustrator enhance the magazine's overall appeal and organization, providing a delightful experience for readers who love cooking.
