The Brief

Private Eye is Britain's longest-running and best-selling satirical magazine, with a circulation of around 200,000 and a reputation for fearless political commentary. Cover design work for Private Eye is one of the most visible design assignments in British publishing.

What I Did

I produced cover design work for a run of Private Eye issues, contributing to one of the most recognisable magazine covers in the UK. The work required an understanding of the magazine's distinctive visual voice — sharp, immediate and economical — while delivering something fresh for each issue.

The Result

A set of published covers for Britain's most-read political magazine — work that appeared on newsstands and in the hands of readers across the country.
