Editorial Design (magazine design) for Army Family 101 magazine, the family magazine of Fort Campbell, home of the 101st Airborne.
My redesign client, Advertising Age, has evolved its Table of Contents strategy dramatically over the past decade, to keep up with the changing promotional needs of the print edition as well as collateral brands. Here the TOC is spread across a Page 2-3 spread which amplifies the week's top inside stories as well.

I created this scatter-plot/area graph to explain how poorly tech stocks have performed over the past decade, especially compared to the overall market.
I also created an interactive Flash version with clickable values for every data point:

This is a slight reworking of a story about the differences between mass and luxury marketing and how the rules are changing. Always loved it conceptually, but the type just wasn't right. Think it works now.
Kraft Velveeta Cheddar Cheese - This is another example of those carefully wrought ads from the 1940s that used illustration instead of photography. The words are also relics from a bygone age; the copy is genteel, a little breathless, very crafted. To our eyes, pre-Boomer ads always read like little short stories.

AMP Excel Award (Silver): Feature Story Design
I designed this feature on silly real-life patents. Illustrator Josh McKible (mckibillo) did an excellent job visualizing a ridiculous patent on "Methods of Exercising a Cat."

Spam Ideas - Shelf Life has seen a lot of unlikely recipes from Hormel over the years, but Spam patio dip has to be the ultimate in yucky barminess. Our first reaction: it's really, really pink. Our second reaction: can Spamsicles be far behind?

Business to business wholesale catalog design for Royal Designs, Inc., a manufacture of high-end lamp shades and home decor products.
Now Taste The Deep Tomato Flavor In Heinz Tomato Soup – This week’s Incredibly Strange Recipes theme is Inside Out, starting with ‘Dilly Burgers’. Interesting concept, but – hmmm – wouldn’t it be wacky if someone ran with that idea and dreamed up reversible hot dogs?
Had a real blast concepting/directing photography for this feature. Kudos to photographer, Fred Lopez for his fantastic work and to Josh Clark's photoshop skills.
