Design Objectives: This project explored editorial design through the lens of music history and visual culture. The objective was to create a magazine article layout that examines how 1990s techno culture influenced graphic design trends and continued to shape visual styles into the 2010s. The layout emphasizes strong typographic hierarchy, experimental composition, and rhythmic visual pacing to reflect the aesthetic language that emerged from techno scenes and electronic music publications.
Design Brief: The 90s Techno magazine article project focuses on the relationship between electronic music culture and graphic design evolution. The editorial spread was designed to visually support an article discussing how the bold typography, abstract visuals, and experimental layouts associated with 1990s techno scenes influenced designers for decades afterward. By combining structured grid systems with expressive visual elements, the layout reflects the era’s energetic aesthetic while maintaining professional readability. The final design presents the article as both an informative piece and a visual tribute to the lasting design impact of techno culture.
