RETREAT MAGAZINE
Digital Design | Graphic Design
Retreat Magazine is a fashion, travel, and beauty magazine based in Australia. Throughout summer of 2020, I did a 5 month long internship under them doing digital design. Due to the pandemic, all my work was remote - however, I was able to effectively communicate with my manager to understand what assets were needed. Using the Adobe InDesign, Adobe Illustrator, and Adobe Photoshop, I helped the magazine create visual designs for web use.
During my application process, I made a layout for them using a typography style guide and a few pictures that they gave me. It was a good opportunity to brush up on my InDesign skills and gave me a lot of creative freedom.
The rest of my work at the magazine consisted of helping create clean mockups and many advertisements for their social medias. Retreat had a very sleek and clean aesthetic, which I absolutely loved working on.
Retreat also sells merchandise such as yoga mats and yoga bags, which they often pair with their newest Poolside Issue when purchased. I helped Retreat create some yoga mats designs to be produced for their new collection. They gave me a series of images that they wanted printed, and using various tools such as Photoshop and Lightroom, I was able to play around, shift images, and create cute designs to fit the dimensions of the mats.
