Experiencing the ever-growing relationship between art and business, BusImagination is a concept magazine that would feature a wide range of different artists and creatives. In this first issue of the magazine, I star in the first-ever edition of the magazine, where I (and other people featured here in the future) would discuss our endeavors from both the artistic/creative and business perspectives. 

When approaching the design behind the cover of the first edition of BusImagination, I went into it from the inspiration of established magazines like those of Forbes and Billboard (as featured in the slideshow above). Furthermore, the background, fonts used, and the overall design direction are meant to convey a style similar to what we have seen out of the well-known Diary of a Wimpy Kid book series (as shown in the slideshow above). Breaking down the cover design further, the dashed path curve seen is meant to mimic what it’s like to start with a vision and end with the vision being fulfilled with a sense of purpose. Thus, this design choice fulfills the message of the cover, “A Visionary with Purpose.”

Looking back on this magazine cover, I am very fond of this design, and it is one of my favorite cover designs that I have created. In conclusion, I envision this magazine as a bridge between two distinct worlds: art and business. By bringing these worlds together and understanding the deeper meaning behind this relationship, we can accomplish many great endeavors that we set our minds to.
