Creating a design for a magazine that provides representation for the LGBTQ+ community.

For my senior thesis project, I chose to create a magazine publication that caters to a LGBTQ+ audience. I was motivated by the lack of representation available for LGBTQ+ youth in media.
To solve this problem, I developed the concept for Identity Magazine, a publication that provides content for a wide spectrum of identities. Identity boasted a wide range of topics, such as mental health, advice, and fashion.
My goal for this project was to provide support and a sense of community for young people that may feel isolated or misunderstood. I strived to incorporate my skills in illustration and editorial design into a cause I felt passionate about.
