This week's top Port Magazine projects, carefully handpicked by Visie's expert curators, showcase the best in style and innovation.
Project Port Magazine · GUCCI special
Port Magazine turns its lens toward the heritage and contemporary evolution of the Italian house in this GUCCI special, a high-fashion editorial campaign that expertly navigates the intersection of urban grit and luxury refinement. Through the collaborative vision of photographer Lola Banet and fashion editor Roberto Piu, the project strips away the noise of high-gloss advertising, opting instead for a restrained, documentary-style approach. By leaning into natural light and a muted, cool-toned color palette, the team captures a series of portraits and lifestyle vignettes that feel both spontaneous and meticulously curated. The imagery highlights the tactile depth of Gucci’s iconic textures—from suede and monogram canvas to high-gloss leather and crocodile-embossed accents—against stark, minimalist architectural backdrops. With hair styling by Hiro Furukawa and precision casting by Ernest Rudzki, models Farida Ebene and Thomas LeMaigre anchor the narrative, embodying a quiet, modern confidence that eschews traditional flash. Whether suspended from an urban traffic pole or framed by the cool reflection of a transit barrier, the accessories are treated as sculptural elements rather than mere products. Ultimately, this editorial series reads as a masterclass in balance, demonstrating how a heritage brand can maintain its iconic status while inhabiting the raw, unpolished corners of the modern cityscape through intentional, atmospheric composition.
Project Port Magazine · Patrick Jouin
Port Magazine profiles the work and process of designer Patrick Jouin through a series of editorial features. Captured by photographer Florent Tanet, the project balances portraiture with precise still-life photography to highlight the designer's industrial approach and craftsmanship. The imagery utilizes minimalist and tactile compositions to explore the intersection of raw artist materials and finished furniture design. Through the use of soft light and clean framing, the series documents both the human side of the practice and the workshop environment where these objects take shape.
Project Port Magazine · Echoes of Us
Echoes of Us is a menswear editorial feature for Port Magazine, captured by photographer Valentin Hennequin. The series explores themes of intimacy and quietude through a collection of studio and location-based portraits. Throughout the spread, the visual language relies on monochrome palettes and high-contrast natural light to accentuate the textures of the garments. Fashion editor Stuart Williamson curates a selection of refined tailoring, balancing structured blazers and oversized outerwear with relaxed, tactile knitwear. The compositions lean into minimalist environments and distressed architectural backdrops, utilizing raw negative space to frame the subjects. The project features modeling by Sekhou Drame and Adria Sane, with casting by Aymeric and hair styling by William Scott Blair, employing editorial, minimalist, and analogue techniques.
Project Port Magazine · Photography Angele Moraiz and Paul Mougeot
Port Magazine features a series of editorial still life photography by Angèle Moraiz and Paul Mougeot, exploring the intersection of luxury horology and industrial design. The collection highlights high-end skeleton watches and jewellery through a series of sculptural arrangements that juxtapose refined metalwork with utilitarian objects like paper clips, leather gloves, and stationery. The compositions leverage a mix of minimalist and graphic layouts, often employing hard light or low-key chiaroscuro techniques to heighten the tactile contrast between materials. Each frame relies on controlled studio environments to emphasize the mechanical precision of the timepieces against vibrant, monochromatic backdrops.
Project Port Magazine · Joseph Quinn
Port Magazine features actor Joseph Quinn in an editorial portrait series that explores themes of corporate ennui through a stylized, kinetic lens. Captured by photographer Samuel Bradley, the project employs chiaroscuro lighting and monochrome grading to heighten the atmospheric, often absurd, workplace narrative. Fashion editor Mitchell Belk oversees the structured tailoring, while set designer Staci Lee constructs an office environment that shifts from minimalist studio partitions to a more chaotic, paper-strewn landscape. The series leans into editorial techniques like high-speed freeze motion and analogue film aesthetics to deliver a high-contrast character study. Hair styling is provided by Joshua Knight.
