About the Role
AVVY is the first-of-its-kind print magazine & digital landscape dedicated to avatar fashion and digital identity. We’re launching our debut issue this fall — and we’re looking for a Creative Director to own the editorial art direction of the entire magazine. From cover stories to cultural essays, you’ll design how every feature, profile, and recurring section comes to life visually. You’ll create layouts and page designs that are as stylish and editorially strong as the stories themselves — ensuring AVVY looks as good as it reads. Beyond print, your creative direction will help guide AVVY’s overall brand presence — making sure our Substack, social channels, and immersive touch points carry the same visual authority and style.
Art direct all editorial spreads and layouts for the quarterly magazine
Develop and maintain a cohesive visual style across features, profiles, and recurring sections
Collaborate with editorial, photography, and illustration teams to create culturally tuned, original page designs
Establish page composition, typography, and grid systems for maximum style and clarity
Ensure the AVVY brand’s look and feel is consistent across print, Substack, and promotional content
You’ve art directed editorial spreads for fashion, lifestyle, or culture magazines
You have a sharp eye for page composition, typography, and image treatment
You can balance variety across an issue with a unified brand feel
You’re culturally fluent and in sync with Gen Z & Alpha aesthetics
You thrive in collaborative environments and can translate ideas into impactful visuals
This is your chance to create the visual heartbeat of AVVY — from the first issue onward. We’re looking for someone who can set the tone, push the visuals, and make every page feel collectible. If you’re ready to design editorial spreads that will be saved, shared, and remembered — we’d love to hear from you.
