The project

The brief

The winter issue opened with a short story about a walk home. The art director asked for snow you could hear.

How it was made

Most of the work was deciding what to leave white. The red post at the edge was the last thing added and the first thing people mention.

The result

The spread opened the issue and became the magazine’s winter subscription postcard.
