The Architects’ Journal
AJ Magazine Redesign
With the redesign of the AJ Magazine and AJ Specification our ambition was for the content-led editorial to be presented with a clarity and simplicity that it had lacked previously. Our design paired the journal’s plain-speaking language with a clear yet random layout of images to create an ephemeral look. This reflected ideas which the editor was pushing in the content; for example, showing a building in its progressive state from sketches and plans, to the finished build. At some points the images overlap each other, and at others they hang from a line as though pinned up on a wall.

AJ Brand Identity
We redesigned the logo and roundel for AJ and AJ specification – replacing Eurostile with a new Akkurat logotype but keeping the familiar circle. This was developed across all the AJ stationery and marketing materials.

AJ Specification Magazine Redesign
Alongside the redesign of the AJ, we also redesigned the monthly AJ Specification. This magazine included templates for design and photography of material specification boards.
