The Challenge
I was hired to design a magazine that blends modern aesthetics with a nostalgic feel for longtime trading card game fans. Aimed at players, collectors, and investors, it features insider content on top franchises like Magic: The Gathering, Pokémon, Yu-Gi-Oh, and Lorcana.
I created dynamic, fan-focused layouts that reflect the passion of each community. Originally planned as a one-off, the issue sold out so fast it’s now set to release quarterly for at least the first year.
