The Visual Presentation and Aesthetic Spirit of Magazine – In the Case of VERSE’s Design Concept

It has always been the original intention of VERSE to run a “good-looking” magazine, but how to make it profound and “good-looking”?

From the content structure, editorial strategy to graphic design of the magazine, how do each of them converse and response to each other in order to discover its characteristics and style the brand? How did Li Jyunc-Cih, the Design Director apply her beautiful layout and cultural imagination to the magazine?
The newly published magazine VERSE provides an interesting model, as a reference, it helps the people who love design and magazine to better understand the philosophy and spirit behind the magazine.
