Surfer Magazine

This concept design for Surfer Magazine was created to showcase a custom monospace font.

The letterforms are inspired by the simple geometry of waves and surfboard fins. The visual style picks up from prime surf eras of the 70s-90s, with fat letters, bold curves, bright colors and rich textures.

To keep the brand redesign modern and refreshing, the magazine and posters hold to a strict grid, to balance out the retro inspirations.
