Approach
Each journal needed its own visual identity while staying recognizable as part of the same university publishing system. Rather than one template stretched across four titles, I designed a consistent structure — logo mark, cover layout, header treatment — that flexed enough to give each journal its own color and character by subject area.
All four are live and indexed today, which meant working within the constraints of an existing publishing platform rather than a blank canvas.
Working within an existing publishing platform — rather than a blank canvas — meant every visual decision had to respect technical constraints I didn’t control, which shaped how modular the final system needed to be.
