The Whole 9

Newsletters

The Whole 9 Weekly Blog Newsletter template

The creative social network, The Whole 9, asked me to design several newsletters, including a template that would be used for a weekly blogging network mailer. I kept the colors and typography use consistent, but spiced things up a bit by juxtapositioning text of different sizes and colors, along with concise, informative images.

The tricky part was incorporating interesting elements into the newsletters, while at the same time making them versatile enough to change depending on the event and varying amounts of information. Keeping a certain kind of movement and rhythm going with the text throughout seemed to do the trick, serving as a unifying element from newsletter to newsletter.
