Magazine Design for D.O.P.E.

I’m looking for a graphic/editorial designer to help develop D.O.P.E. Magazine, a digital-first creative culture magazine connected to the D.O.P.E. movement. The visual direction should feel like a 90s/early-2000s underground hip-hop, street culture, dance, music and fashion magazine — bold typography, raw photography, collage elements, grain, scanned textures, handwritten details and experimental layouts. I don’t want it to feel corporate, overly polished or like a modern business magazine. The magazine will feature dancers, photographers, DJs, filmmakers, musicians, events and underground creative culture, while also telling the story of D.O.P.E. I’m looking for someone who can help establish the overall visual identity, cover design and reusable editorial layouts for Issue 001. Think collectible culture piece / underground zine / vintage hip-hop magazine, but with its own original D.O.P.E. identity.
