Since 1925, “The Forestry Chronicle” has been published to provide information to forest practitioners about professional and scientific management of forests and their resources. 

The challenge was to design the visual identity for a synthesized version of the magazine, “The Forestry Chronicles: In Short”.

The goal was to target the next generation of forestry professionals by modernizing the visual identity and layout, as well as provide alternative ways to access the magazine’s content.

INSPIRATION

Forests are layered with trees, plants, and earth, so let’s layer text, headers, imagery, and other design elements.

INSPIRATION

Trees are tall. Lumber is long. Let’s use thick lines to frame and highlight important information.
