My Roles
TITLE is a collective of diverse creatives who thrive when coming together to build unconventional narratives and make things that push culture in a new direction.
Each issue is guided by a central theme encouraging our team to experiment with their ideas through a myriad of mediums. With a focus on collaboration, TITLE staff inspires each other as photographers, stylists, writers, designers, and everything in between. Fostering this creative cross-pollination keeps things fresh and allows TITLE to explore new concepts.
Theme
Issue 008 is all about “time”. Time is a strange thing. You can't feel it. You can't touch it. It stretches moments into immeasurable years. And yet, at the snap of its fingers, decades disappear into seconds. What is time? How does it move? How long has it really been? Do you have enough? Do you have too much? Focused on capturing moments and visualizing time, where has your time taken you? This is a magazine about our perception & experience of time. Thank you for spending yours with us.

Limerent Object
Concept Development, Layout, Graphics
Limerence, a state of intense infatuation often characterized by obsessive thoughts and fantasies about a desired person, can be all-consuming of one’s time. This project delves into the nature of limerence and how it affects the allocation of time, attention, and focus within an individual’s life.
Approach
When developing a concept for issue 008, I considered how the subject of time could be unique to my experience while still resonating with a broader audience. Reflecting on what currently occupies my time led me to conceptualize “Limerent Object,” a theme rooted in yearning.

In The Mood For Love
Layout, Graphics
Layout, Graphics
Heavily inspired by the film In The Mood For Love, this project aims to recreate the visual tones and overall mood established through intimate cinematography. In The Mood For Love is a movie that pulls the viewer in and transports them back in time, in this case, the 60s.
Approach
For Elijah’s concept In The Mood For Love, my approach to the layout design was deeply influenced by the film itself. The project aims to encapsulate the movie’s nostalgic atmosphere and transport viewers back to the 1960s. To achieve this, I drew inspiration from the aesthetics of 60s Chinese album covers and movie posters.
