Digital Magazine Design System

Modular layout framework for quarterly enterprise publication

Bank of America APAC

Graphic Design

SourceCode is a quarterly digital magazine for employees across APAC. I shaped its visual identity and built a flexible layout system that made each issue more consistent and easier to produce.

System logic and workflow

Working with editors across regions, I shaped the layout system and guided the design direction.

I designed a modular grid and reusable layout components for text, imagery, data visuals, and pull quotes. This reduced one-off design work and kept pages consistent across issues.

Each layout was shaped around evolving content, with attention to rhythm, hierarchy, and clarity.

I also guided reviews and refinements through each stage, ensuring that the final issue carried a unified visual voice.

  • A flexible modular layout system

  • Consistent typographic and color structure

  • Improved clarity for text-heavy and data-driven pages

  • Faster production through reusable components

Interaction and navigation

Issues included navigational cues and jump-to-section behaviors, giving the PDF a simple interaction model. I designed layouts to support smooth transitions between stories and to help readers maintain orientation across large volumes of content. The system also adapted to multiple surfaces, including desktop reading, internal newsletters, and presentation excerpts.

Result

The template system reduced layout time and created a calmer, more consistent reading experience—allowing each issue to settle into a clearer visual rhythm.

To respect confidentiality, projects shown here are recreations that reflect the style, complexity, and thinking behind my real-world work. I can walk through my process, role, and strategic impact in detail when needed.
