WIRED Magazine: The Telltale Heart Redesign

When it comes to this project, I took the article, The Telltale Heart, from Wired magazine, and redesigned the layout. Wired Magazine is known for letting designers really experiment and do something different with layouts, so redesigning a layout for a Wired story makes a lot of sense. 

My goal was to have the article be atmospheric and give a kind of feel that would help show off the story. The pictures I used were supposed to represent certain parts of the story and I tried to keep them either in black and white, or I would use desaturated photos. This way it kept with the atmosphere of the story as it deals with a murder. I then used red and black throughout for some visual interest as those are the colors most associated with death and murder.
