Project: Retrospectacular



Retrospectacular is a magazine concept for young adults, created to capture and reflect on the past half year of pop culture. The name fuses retrospect and spectacular, a perfect match for its dual mission: looking back at recent trends while framing them through a striking visual language.

Positioned as an insider’s guide, Retrospectacular is designed to feel like a private club where readers are always ahead of the curve. Each issue curates the highlights of the past six months: unforgettable concerts, must-visit bars, newly opened clubs, the freshest in fashion and music, shifts in tech, and portraits of cultural voices that define the moment.
At its core lies a bold visual identity. Striking photography carries a quirky yet refined edge, making the magazine as captivating to look at as it is to read. The imagery tells stories in itself, creating a visual narrative strong enough to stand without words.
