To start, I designed the text element for the background I wanted in InDesign as it is easier to change the type exactly how I wanted. I could also use the masthead from my magazine.

I adjusted the pattern I made for different devices with different colour backgrounds.

Figma

Before starting this project I had begun another project designing a website for a brand called 'Cyano', this meant I had some experience with Figma and could design a product website. This helped beginning this design process as I had most of the assets as well as from the previous project for this module.

For my website I used the same assets and ideas from my magazine and layered the people above text and out of the boxes they are in. I believe this makes my website more interesting and the separation between them makes it more clear there are separate articles to read.

For the article page I knew I wanted the main image of the magazine to be at the top of the page. I used all of the article and pulled out quotes to separate the text. I also used the same images in the magazine and will have an option to go to another page at the bottom of the page.

Before our final hand in date, and some feedback, I added a blur background to the white text on the article images to help with legibility. I also changed smaller things like the weight of the social icons across the different platforms.
