Mold magazine was born in the age where blogs ran rampant across the internet. After a decade of content production, it was clear that their slice of the internet had evolved into a deep editorial website. We needed to update the visual language for the site to reflect the maturity of the content and match the newly printed magazine counterpart.

For this, we built out a mix-and-match approach to the template modules used for the articles. The underlying grid system allows for a wide range of presentation styles.

We developed a grid system that had more options than we even planned for. Each module is built to fit within the flexible column system. Each variation allows the Mold editors to design a block around what type of content they have (vs. designing content to predefined blocks.) This freedom allows for a freeing exploration of unique layouts.

Field Meridians is a sister project born to the same creators – an artist collective committed to strengthening local food ecologies in Crown Heights, Brooklyn. The first project is called FM Nature School and is devoted to organizing workshops from local artists.
