When readers open the pages of Lagoon, we want them to feel like they’re diving into the crisp, refreshing water of a secret pool. We’re looking for art, photography, and graphics that feature bold, moody cool tones, with pops of color—think a flamingo peeking through tropical foliage or a bright orange koi swimming in a clear blue pond.

We want to see fluid brushstrokes, moody edits, and typography that feels organic and serene—think flowing, hand-lettered scripts or subtle, rounded fonts that evoke the gentle ripple of water. Art might include layered, flowing compositions, soft gradients, or painterly textures that mimic the movement of water. Photography could focus on intimate close-ups of aquatic details, dramatic reflections, or scenes that feel hidden and untouched.

While this is a summer issue, it should feel like an escape from the bright, fast-paced summer adventures to a calm and refreshing hideaway. Please avoid sharp, modern designs, neon tones, or anything that feels too polished or artificial. The tone should remain bold and moody, with a sense of mystery and depth.
