The New Tennant

2023 | CATU Ireland

The New Tenant is a broad sheet publication which features a selection of archival writings on the topic of renter activism and contrasts it with contemporary opinion pieces. Aiming to draw similarities between past struggled and today's difficult landscape.

The project was launched by the Irish tenants union, CATU as part of their outreach initiative. The layout presents both archival and contemporary analysis side by side, which meant finding a balance between the old and new. The final design focused on clarity, with a minimal treatment of type and layout as a response to my research into CATU's archive of publications.
