Role: illustration, layout
Typically our travel section is photo-driven (obviously) but for this story about the comeback of travel agents, editor Kerri Westenberg and I needed to come up with something a little more dynamic than a headshot of a travel agent. After riffing on a couple ideas and nixing plenty more, I came to her with the inspiration of instagram's "things arranged neatly" photos, where people lay out everything in their daily bag or pockets, etc and suggested we illustrate that with travel items, since the whole point is the ease and organization of travel agents. She liked it, and we moved forward with a watercolor + vector style illustration.
