This project was part of the RCA Textual unit “Make a Zine in 3 Hours”. Each student initially chose a theme, then on the day, we were randomly paired and exchanged our topics with a partner. The task was to complete the entire zine—including design, printing, and binding—within three hours.
My randomly assigned partner had chosen namul (seasoned vegetables), exploring the theme of Korean dining culture. To reflect this visually, I selected a serif typeface that evokes the elegance of traditional Korean aesthetics, and used green—the colour most commonly associated with namul—as the accent throughout.
