23.08 Feature Articles Title Page

In June 2015, MuirMcNeil were commissioned by WIRED to design the feature articles title page for the August 2015 issue. The initial brief was brief – to make a type-based image featuring the issue number.

The design evolved from a serendipitous observation made when highlighting overlaid numerals set in MMcN Intersect. The final design is intended to reflect the subject of the main feature article on gene-editing with suggestions of DNA electrophoresis imagery.
