Die Studierenden entwickelten im Semesterprojekt ein gestalterisches Konzept für ein Magazin mit dem Schwerpunkt auf eine digitale Umsetzung mit Web-Technologie oder die Umsetzung als Printprodukt.
Grundlegende formale Aspekte wie Typografie, Bild-Text-Beziehung und Gestaltungsraster wurden in den Formaten berücksichtigt und erprobt.
Organ is often seen as the king of the instruments not only because of its strong abilities to produce many different chords and dynamics but because of how massive and impressive it is. We created our magazine concept around the organ of the Heilig Kreuz Münster. It is the oldest southern German hall church from the Gothic period. The visitors of the Heilig Kreuz Münster can hardly escape the magnificent effect that the cathedral organ is able to produce on them. In our concept, we wanted to create an interesting and powerful impression, the kind that this monumental and historic organ generates with its sound and image.
For creating such an appealing design we based our design on the use of red, black and white as the colours chosen to build striking contrast. We also utilized a bold typeface and elongated, slender images that mimic organ pipes for textual elements. We keep a clean and consistent style throughout all the magazine, trying to always highlight the beauty and magnificence of the Heilig Kreuz Münster organ.
