Common is not an architecture journal. It is an anti-journal: a space for the ideas, reflections and discussions that sit beside the physical product of architecture and design. A truly collaborative piece, we worked alongside GPAD to turn their concept into the brand and editorial style.

Illustration style
Illustrations for this issue of Common focused on the ordinary objects we encounter and the creatures that inhabit our everyday world. From pigeons navigating urban spaces to worms burrowed deep within an unsuspecting apple, they invite us to notice the life woven into the seemingly mundane. Together, these images celebrate the small, often overlooked, moments that surround us.
