DESCRIPTION
Goal Squarely Magazine was created to connect The Square Club with Bristol’s creative community and showcase local talent. Each quarterly issue celebrates the city’s art, food, music, and culture with a contemporary, engaging design. Role As Lead Designer, I took the project from concept to print, establishing its branding, visual identity, and editorial layout. I balanced visuals and content to create a design that is clear, cohesive, and accessible. Outcome Now on its tenth issue, Squarely has become a celebrated independent publication with citywide distribution and strong recognition for connecting with Bristol’s vibrant creative scene.
Covers
A selection of our Squarely magazine covers, each one a unique collaboration with Bristol’s vibrant creative community. Featuring original artwork and photography from local talent — from established names to emerging voices — every cover celebrates the city’s spirit, energy, and artistic soul.
Page Design
Each spread brings the magazine’s voice to life. I work with the editors’ articles to create fun, engaging layouts that use typography and imagery to lift the words. Music features are always a favourite to design.
