What was unclear

A new market, and a short window to be credible in it.

MTG was entering the alternative protein market, the growing non-animal protein space, and needed a credible brand and publication before the moment passed.

What I led

Brand, magazine, enewsletters, and site as one system, in under 8 weeks.

I built the brand identity, the magazine, the enewsletters, and a responsive news site as one system, in under 8 weeks. The visual language tied them together so the new title read as a peer to MTG's other properties.

Who I influenced

Brand and product design, across the business.

I led brand and product design, working with the owner and president, the Publisher, the editor, and the developers.

What changed

MTG launched a new property on a tight timeline, aimed at a growing audience.

  • Brand, magazine, enewsletters, and responsive site shipped together
  • Built in under 8 weeks, from a standing start

Design system

The component library behind this build is still browsable.

The original Pattern Lab from the project, and the same patterns rebuilt recently in Storybook with interactive controls on the core atoms.
