Non-Expansive Space Zine



These are a few spreads from a zine called non-expansive space.This zine focuses on band interviews that are in the taste of the maker. The interviews seem intimate and personal and it is an interesting curation of people and ideas. Noise bros and punks love this, and the use of the risograph and scanned photos are traces of aestheticized DIY culture. 

The type used is a serif transitional humanist font because it has rounded brackets. however the letters are completely vertical. The font looks like times new roman but is more warm. 

This zine uses colours to impose an inflection and hierarchy in the grid format. The questions are primarily in red showing the importance. The red ink was also printed at different times than the black ink so that both colours overlap, however the reader can still read the question. The pictures complement the text on the page, and when printed in red can become a background to black text. 

In future projects I want to use mono-coloured images and experiment with overlaying text, because there will still be legibility.
