This is my favorite magazine - SEED - the periodical navigates the incredibly interesting and unique interface between science and art/design . . . A defining characteristic of the mag is the rainbow graphic present on the spine of each issue. The image itself is a spectroscopy analysis (a method through which a chemical compound is bombarded with entire visible spectrum of light to reveal a unique pattern - the white bars that appear on the rainbow); so on issue there is the consistency of rainbow image across the spine, but every month features a different element (meaning that the white lines are in different places on each issue). . . really cool! For this issue in particular, I'm really drawn to the circuitry incorporated into the text and the use of color, the primary muted colors of the background image really allow the bright orange of the title to pop.
