ABOUT

Hinterland is a quarterly journal of creative non-fiction which launched in spring 2019. Each issue is around 256 pages and contains writing from some of the UK’s best and brightest authors. Alongside its joint-editors, I’m responsible for how the magazine looks and feels, having established its grids, typography and photography style.
We wanted the journal to straddle the boundaries of modern and archaic, with bold typographic title pages that could be set on computer or in a letterpress, and an almost luxurious use of white space to make reading it a pleasure.
A ‘lived in’ feel is maintained throughout, from the tactility of the slightly coarse paper stock to the slightly worn and distressed type and black blocks used as page furniture.
