“JASM” jazz magazine

university project 2023-24

A Modern View on Jazz

 

JASM is an editorial project that pays tribute to jazz through a DIY lens.

 

Inspired by 1970s fanzines, it features a raw, photocopied aesthetic with tall, narrow layouts. Bold typography and halftone textures capture jazz’s improvisational spirit, making every spread loud, messy, and expressive.

A celebration of jazz history and a fresh take on editorial design.

A modern view on jazz.

 

“JASM” is an editorial project that pays tribute to the roots of jazz through a DIY lens. Inspired by 1970s fanzines, it embraces a raw, photocopied aesthetic with a tall, narrow format and rhythmic layouts.

 

The magazine merges bold typography with halftone textures to reflect the improvisational spirit of jazz. Every spread is loud, messy, and expressive — just like jazz itself. This project is not only a celebration of jazz history but also a contemporary reinterpretation of editorial design.
