ADORE
editorial design + campaign
I designed Alberto Maggini’s publication: “ADORE the waste of our adornments”, a resident artist in Rome. His research, winner of the Italian Council Program 2023, was focused on the recontextualization of our beauty industry’s waste, through the lenses of mycenaean culture and re-imagined as a fashion magazine.
To interpret his message, I developed patterns with elements taken from the artist’s photographs of mycenaean artifacts. These patterns were then repeated in series, matched with typography stretched on the page’s bleed zone, and connected with every image chosen for the magazine.
developed at TWM FACTORY

Supported by the Directorate-General for Contemporary Creativity of the Italian Ministry of Culture, the magazine was also presented at the Orto Botanico in Rome.

As a personal exercise, I also independently designed a further concept for the cover, an animation done in Cavalry and a poster.
