Final cover design.
Final table of contents design. Left-hand page (A Note From the Editor) was not a requirement but designed in order to show the interrelationship of the right-hand page (Contents) graphics. Idea was to force the reader to turn the magazine in order to literally interpret the issue's theme of looking at veterans in a new way.
Final two-page story spread design.
Final two-page story spread design continued. Continuation of the spread was not required, but design for added effect. Infographic was designed as a side-bar to the story and is related but can also stand on its own.
Final business reply card design. Card was set for single plate, two-sided printing.
