For my type assignment, I decided to make a news magazine cover for a story about modern urban life. The red text is of words of various minorities, subcultures, and other labels in a gritty font. It's supposed to look like a brick wall obscuring the word "assimilation," implying that modern multi-culturalism is stronger than homogenization. I enjoy social criticism.

I was inspired by the Esquire cover that just had the quote "Oh my god - we just hit a little girl." Thus all the negative space for impact. It's simple, but those are the kinds of designs that I like to work with.
