This April edition of the Reading Country Club newsletter showcases a strong focus on publication design, brand consistency, and promotional layout strategy. I developed a structured grid system and clear typographic hierarchy to organize event highlights alongside custom branded flyers for upcoming events, ensuring both readability and visual impact. The design balances dense informational content with engaging visuals through intentional spacing, color coordination, and layout variation. All photography was captured and edited by me, highlighting skills in composition, lighting, and color correction to maintain a cohesive visual identity. Written content from department directors was refined through careful editing to improve clarity, tone, and flow. This piece demonstrates strengths in editorial design, marketing integration, and creating polished, multi-purpose layouts optimized for both print and digital use.
