Deseret Magazine

Deseret Magazine is a publication by Deseret News, the longest-running news organization in Utah. They aim to elevate understanding, challenge assumptions, and illuminate context from their heritage of faith, family, and values. I assisted with creating a polished style guide, art direction, illustration, and design.
