"Divided Detroit" is a piece I co-authored and designed my senior year of high school. The story itself covers the gentrification of Detroit, highlighting my hometown's complicity. Inspired by gestaltan's "Newspaper Design," I made this piece my own by incorporating photos juxtaposing the festivities of Downtown with the "No trespassing" sign found on the outskirts of the city.
*This design was awarded 3rd place in the Feature Spread category by the Michigan Interscholastic Press Association (MIPA) in April 2022. I was subsequently named an All-State Student Journalist on the News Design team.
