Challenge

Make a local PC-repair magazine feel like a collectible tech zine instead of a service catalog.

Concept

Retro computing interface meets editorial portraiture: system alerts as pull quotes, barcode as signature.

Process

Cover layout, typographic system, pixel and CRT textures, and a hand-placed 'Katty Was Here' barcode mark.
