The Mercersburg Academy magazine covers showcase a visually engaging and thoughtful design, creatively executed!

Mercersburg Academy's use of graphic design on its magazine covers feels elevated and fresh. The covers offer an immediate sense of internal content and engage the viewer by creating visual movement. They make me want to read each issue cover to cover!

Busy in an appealing way, like a fun jigsaw puzzle. Rewards looking deeper. Thoughtfully designed. Great expression of the theme of the issue.

Clean, creative, and clever. The radiating graphic elements display the variety of school experiences possible, which is represented by the central, prominent school logo. Well done!

The clean white border neatly frames the cover, guiding your eye toward the header and down toward the central artwork. I like the use of both graphic design and photography to offer variety throughout the year. It is a practical, engaging way to convey the inside contents.
