While searching for the most unique articles on the ‘Wired’ and ‘The New Yorker’ websites, I came across an article comparing piano keys to computer keyboards, highlighting the commonality that both require input to produce sound or text. Inspired by this, I designed a cover featuring a man typing and a background shaped like a computer keyboard. I used various textures from my own photography to ensure the magazine cover felt cohesive and seamless.
