Overview

This is a self-initiated editorial design project built around the BNP Paribas Open at Indian Wells. I designed a full magazine package, including the cover, interior spread, and back cover, with a unified visual identity based on bold typography, court photography, and graphic color blocking.

Design Approach

The main challenge was integrating real sports photography into a designed layout without losing hierarchy. I built the structure on an InDesign grid first, then used Photoshop for masking and compositing, refining type and color across the cover and interior.
