Mountain Journal
Editorial design for a quarterly outdoor magazine celebrating mountain culture and environmental storytelling.
Mountain Journal is a quarterly publication dedicated to mountain culture, environmental conservation, and the people who live in and care for mountain communities.
The design system
We developed a flexible design system that uses bold typography, generous white space, and a restrained color palette. Each issue explores a new region, and the design adapts while maintaining a consistent visual language.
Layout philosophy
We prioritize the photography and editorial content, using a modular grid that adapts to different story types. Pull quotes and callouts are treated as design elements, breaking up the rhythm of longer features.
