Will Davidson & Stevie Dance Shoot Naomi Watts for Vogue Australia

Identity & Editorial Design for a quarterly design journal based in Monterrey & Mexico City.

Folio was conceived with the idea of developing a container for design topics, that doesn’t contaminate the design itself or the content.

Face started from the naming, creating a generic, easy to remeber, simple and appealing name that makes sense not only for the type of document, but also for keeping track of the issue with the number or folio.

The design was the easy part. A very bold, legible, simple logo to communicate good design. Add some stylish and generic fonts to the mix and you can call it a win instantly. The layout is based on technical documents where everything is self explanatory, even literal by naming every space, item, element or text by its name. The overlapping of photos creates a more appealing, aesthetic look.
Overall this simple document contains and documents what’s best for everybody: good content inside a good container.

Silk crape is woven of hard spun silk yarn in the gum or natural condition. There are two distinct varieties of the textile: soft, Canton, or Oriental crape, and hard or crisped crape. Thin crêpe is called crêpe de Chine (“Chinese crêpe”).

The wavy appearance of Canton crape results from the peculiar manner in which the weft is prepared, the yarn from two bobbins being twisted together in the reverse way. The fabric when woven is smooth and even, having no crape appearance, but when the gum is subsequently extracted by boiling, it at once becomes soft, and the weft, losing its twist, gives the fabric the waved structure which constitutes its distinguishing feature. Canton crapes are used, either white or colored, for scarves and shawls, bonnet trimmings, etc.

The crisp and elastic structure of hard crape is not produced either in the spinning or in the weaving, but is due to processes through which the gauze passes after it is woven. In 1911, the details of these processes were known to only a few manufacturers, who so jealously guarded their secrets that, in some cases, the different stages in the manufacture were conducted in towns far removed from each other.[citation needed] Commercially they are distinguished as single, double, three-ply and four-ply crapes, according to the nature of the yarn used in their manufacture. They are almost exclusively dyed black and used in mourning dress.

In Great Britain, hard crapes are made at Braintree in Essex, Norwich, Yarmouth, Manchester and Glasgow. The crape formerly made at Norwich was made with a silk warp and worsted weft and is said to have afterwards degenerated into bombazine[citation needed]. A very successful imitation of real crape is made in Manchester of cotton yarn and sold under the name of Victoria crape.
