Bringing the Harley-Davidson Community together

Editorial Design · Art Direction · Print Production

Founded in 2006 for Sweden’s passionate Harley-Davidson community, celebrating custom motorcycles, unique builds, and the people behind them. From 2009 to 2012, I contributed to the magazine’s editorial development, visual identity, and print production as a graphic designer.

In 2010, the magazine reached a significant milestone, with reported sales increasing by 600% and production rising substantially. By helping bring readers’ stories and distinctive motorcycle builds to life through engaging editorial layouts, I contributed to a publication that attracted a broader Harley-Davidson audience and created opportunities for community-driven content.

My Role & Creative Contribution

Working closely with the publisher, writers, editor, and photographer, I transformed editorial content and photography into cohesive, visually engaging magazine spreads. I managed the final design stages, refined layouts and typography, prepared artwork for print, and coordinated the delivery of finished files to the printer.

My work connected storytelling with strong visual communication, ensuring each feature reflected the individuality of the motorcycles and the people who built them.
