Passer-by

MED 24

Passer-by is a contemporary magazine that discusses culture, art, and politics, through the relationship of movements in space.

Each issue departs from a specific body movement to various perspectives in the current social environment. The first three issues of the magazine—Stretch, Blink, and Tongue Rolling—illustrate this unique approach.

The design choices follow the concept of the magazine, a layout that mixes dense text, images, and moments of space to be an efficient, economical, and readable format. The layouts hold a systematic but varied approach, yet each article has a distinctiveness in its layout, the blocks of text feel responsive to the thoughts and ideas being expressed.

ISSUE 01 STRETCH

This issue stretches its definition, becoming a metaphor for how the world is expanding and embracing stretch in its various forms, unlocking not only the potential of our bodies in space but also the power of the future.

ISSUE 02 BLINK

Blink has the eyes as the center and we take its gaze as a form of communication, with ways of seeing, and the ability to look at different points of view, the movement is ephemeral but impactful.

ISSUE 03 TONGUE ROLLING

Tongue Rolling goes beyond its meaning and spreads to the relationship between our mouth and voice. Tongue rolling unravels the potential of communication to break off reductive statements in society structures. It questions the use of language and information to empower or limit ourselves.
