Overview
Advisor Focus is a financial services magazine published by Kestra Holdings, featuring industry insights, business strategies, and educational content for financial advisors. As the sole designer, I was responsible for the complete visual design and layout of four magazine issues, from cover to cover. Working from supplied editorial content, I developed cover designs, article layouts, custom graphics, advertisements, and multi-page spreads, translating complex financial topics into engaging, easy-to-follow publications. Each issue required balancing creative visual storytelling with consistent typography, clear information hierarchy, and production-ready layouts.
Editorial Layouts & Article Design
Transformed supplied articles into visually engaging magazine layouts, using typography, photography, illustrations, and custom graphics to establish hierarchy and make complex financial topics easier to understand.
Additional Spreads & Advertising
Designed supporting articles, promotional pages, and advertisements that complemented the magazine's editorial content while maintaining consistency across each issue.
