Confession Times

Confession Times is a type-focus broadsheet of love confession. It is unfortunate that “confession pages” in social media have been transformed into a tool for negative and harmful behaviors. As a response to this, we decided to create a printed newspaper that could serve as a platform for respectful confessions. We believe that print media can provide a more thoughtful space for people to express feelings and inspire others to embrace the value of love. 

About Love.
It’s Time to Confess.




Industry: Publishing
Project Type: Editorial Design, Visual Identity
Year: 2023

Print producted under NYTimes.
Featured on Daily Heller, “Designing the Broadsheet.”

Comments by Debra Bishop, design director, NYTimes:
“The design of this is beautiful and poetic. I must confess that ‘love as a broadsheettopic can often be unsophisticated but this is cheeky without being cheezy. I love the eclectic font choices. A beautiful job of mixing old design iconography with a modern and fluid design.”
