Next Story

Across its editions, the publication explored a wide range of cultural narratives. From Japan’s Tanabata festival and Ahmedabad’s chai culture to the tribes of Papua New Guinea, trickster folklore from around the world, Egyptian death rituals and the history of major pandemics.

Alongside the visual design, I contributed written content for multiple articles. Working across both writing and layout helped ensure each issue developed a coherent narrative voice.
