Metropolitan

Shown above are two illustrations created by myself through YCN for Metropolitan Magazine, the tagline of which is ‘uncovering regional Italy in London’.

Throughout the illustrations I wanted to make a playful nod to Italian food and culture without being too explicit. The idea for the front page illustration was a celebration of the transition of Italian food from big, stodgy meals for farmers to contemporary, cosmopolitan, tapas-style dinners in the city. The coffee illustration within the magazine aimed to show that there is a different type of coffee to suit every personality.
