Khôra is a philosophical term described by Plato in Timaeus as a receptacle, a space, or an interval. It is neither being nor nonbeing but an interval between in which the “forms” were originally held. Khôra "gives space" and has maternal overtones (a womb, matrix).

Magazine Cover & Spread
Initially I was to begin work on a mens quarterly, but after some deliberation, decided that I would prefer to work on something a bit more abstract.

It being a (meta-magazine) i.e. a magazine about magazines and typography, I felt gave me more room to experiment with more abstract ideas and forms.
