Shadows, artificial light and commuters vanishing underground.
A visual essay commissioned by Common Magazine exploring the shift in London’s energy as the workday ends: shadows, artificial light and the commuters who vanish into the underground.
Challenge
Telling a story across eight spreads with almost no text.
Approach
The palette darkens from spread to spread, following the hour, while the same few characters reappear across the city.
Result
The essay opened Issue 14 of Common Magazine and became the starting point for the Community Spirit cover.
