I S S U E 03 EDITOR’S NOTE Two years ago, I was approached with an opportunity to make a mark on the face of Ryerson University’s Faculty of Communications and Design. It derived from a vision that eventually evolved into this publication. A vision to promote and celebrate the work of passionate, and creative minds that would one day shape the industries of Fashion, Photography, and Design. It is quite staggering how much RADmag has grown and accomplished in the past two years. It is a testament to how an idea, with hard work and dedication, can become something great. It is a dream that has become a YLHSP[` 0 ILSPL]L 0 ZWLHR MVY HSS VM [OL MV\UKPUN Z[Hќ TLTILYZ ^OLU 0 ZH` [OH[ RADmag, and the new generation of exceptionally talented people who take our place have exceeded, and will continue to exceed all of our expectations. <USPRL [OL ZLU[PTLU[Z VM [OPZ SL[[LY ^OPJO HYL H YLÅ LJ[PVU VM [OL WYLZLU[ and the past, the content of this issue is clearly focused on the future. The submissions made by the creatives from fashion, photography, and design for the Fall 2015 issue have made it clear that they intend on shaping the environments of their various industries. From otherworldly landscapes, to the induction of old and new fashions, or even the revitalization of the mythical, it is clear that the students of Ryerson have a vision of the future, and I am pleased to share their visions with you. As my last act as Editor in Chief I would like to say farewell. It has been such a pleasure working with the individuals of RADmag towards creating this publication. I would also like to conclude by congratulating the hard working Z[Hќ MVY WYVK\JPUN [OPZ THNUPÄ JLU[ TVU\TLU[ HZ ^LSS HZ [OL ^VUKLYM\SS` passionate artists who contributed their work to our Fall 2015 issue.
All the best, Nathan C. Dunn

Lucinda McGroarty is currently a Masters of Design student at Emily Carr University in Vancouver, British Columbia, and graduated from Ryerson Universityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s School of Interior Design in the Spring of 2013. During her four years at Ryerson University, Lucinda became increasingly interested in the profound impact that design can have on all aspects of daily living. As a fresh undergraduate student, she watched [OL KVJ\TLU[HY` 6IQLJ[PĂ&#x201E;LK and embraced the words of Paola Antonelli: â&#x20AC;&#x153;I want designers to be the culture generators... they should become fundamental bricks in any kind VM WVSPJ`THRPUN LŃ&#x153;VY[ š
Kate Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Reilly is a 2014 graduate from Ryerson Universityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Fashion Communication program. While completing her degree, Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Reilly began working as a freelance fashion stylist. By second year she was signed with Making Of, a production agency based in Vienna, Austria, where she lived and worked before attending Ryerson.
Hugo Soo is a recent graduate of Ryerson Universityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s School of Interior Design, and currently works as a designer at DIALOG participating in several hotel and hospitality projects.
Lucinda is fascinated with the idea of cross-pollination: designers working alongside other industries to create change. Currently, she is involved in a new interdisciplinary project, and is using her design knowledge in collaboration with the healthcare sector. Lucinda is in the process of employing co-creation methods to aid in the design of a tool to be utilized by Canadians living with type 1 diabetes. Through peer-to-peer communication,
Upon graduation Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Reilly worked as a visual manager at H&Mâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Bloor Street location. Since then, she has moved on to hold three simultaneous jobs IYHUK HUK ^LI THUHNLY MVY =PU[HNL executive assistant at the Fashion Zone, and a freelance fashion stylist. In the future, Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Reilly will be working for clients in Toronto and Vienna, as well as launching her own fashion tech company by Fall 2016.
As a designer Hugo believes that design decisions should be based on H M\ZPVU VM KPŃ&#x153;LYLU[ OVSPZ[PJ L_WLYPLUJLZ He is driven by the ideation of a project and concept development. Hugo also feels that great projects are often built with a concrete foundation of research, or questions that are meant to be answered during the creative process. The act of elimination then allows for irrelevant ideas to be discarded, and can result in a design or idea that proves to be innovative and unique.

STEPHANIE MOSCALL-VAREY NORFOLK
Stephanie Moscall-Varey is a designer from the small town of Port Dover in Norfolk County, Ontario. She is inspired by the beauty of natural structures, humanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s interaction with nature, and the contrast between city and country life. Stephanie strives to experiment with shape through the use of bonded textile manipulation, and her goal is to create an interesting visual contrast between movement, WH[WXUH DQG FRORU 6KH H[SUHVVHV KHUVHOI WKURXJK ZHDUDEOH DUW ZKHUH WKH IHPDOH Ć&#x201A;JXUH LV KHU FDQYDV and believes that the body brings life to her extravagant and abstract designs.
Norfolk by Moskal is a collection based on two concepts merged together: the geographic area of Norfolk County and the art of natural architecture. It is the synthesis of these two ideas that sparked the inspiration for the Norfolk collection. This Art-to-Wear womenswear collection is for Fall/Winter 2015, and focuses on the shapes and structures that convey the fantasy of a beautiful savage. Norfolk is to be seen as a work of art with fashion as the medium. The designs are inspired by various aspects of the small southwestern Ontario county, including the vegetation of the Carolinian forest, and the popular local sport VM O\U[PUN ( KPNP[HS WYPU[ VM ^PU[LY JHTV\Ă&#x2026;HNL is incorporated into the garments, as well as thickly woven fabrics with raw edges to mimic the rough wilderness.

NICK DOWNIE FABRICATED NATURE
Nick Downie is currently a third-year Photography student at Ryerson University. The primary inspiration for his photographic practice is his strong connection with the environment, which he developed at a young age. His work focuses on manâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s material wealth, the growth of metropolitan cities, carsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; and industriesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; affects on the planet, and the overall negative pressure the human race puts on nature. :RUNLQJ PRVWO\ ZLWK VWLOO OLIH KLV PDLQ FKDOOHQJH LV WR WDNH IRXQG REMHFWV ZKLFK PLJKW RQ Ć&#x201A;UVW PHHWLQJ have no apparent dialogue, and breathe life into them until they can communicate an underlying message.

The alarming rate at which society and overindustrialization are depleting the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s natural resources inspired Fabricated Nature. The purpose of this series is to resurrect a forgotten wonder of the natural world, and experience JVU]LU[PVUHS HUPTHSZ PU HU LU[PYLS` KPŃ&#x153;LYLU[ MVYT The images presented are both cultural and meditative, and question what people will miss by tampering with the environment. In each stilllife, the natural world is represented through completely unnatural elements. These elements speak metaphorically about their inherent worth as seen through the eyes of a Western consumer.
The tools and parts that make up the creatures also indicate humanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s inability to manufacture nature. It becomes clear that the closer people come to mimicking the natural world, the further they are separated from it. Fabricated Nature is also a politically charged work, as it rejects the industrial modes of assembly line production. The series embraces the tradition of hand-crafted objects as viable methods of self-sustainability, and cements memories of the past that are necessary for life in the future.

The collection is simultaneously masculine, beautiful, sentimental, and somewhat nostalgic, and the theme is inspired by the junction of historical and modern Seoul, South Korea. Traditional Korean silks and garment details are interpreted into a modern contemporary menswear silhouette, and

priscilla lee SACRED SPACES
Priscilla Lee is a recent graduate of Ryerson’s School of Interior Design. She is greatly inspired by her peers at school, and the surrounding architecture and structures of Toronto. As an interior designer, Priscilla aims to create environments that provide a multi-sensory experience for individuals, all while focusing on aesthetics and spatial design.

By observing the constant change in water levels, individuals become aware of the powerful consequences that water can have.
This spiritual experience can be generally represented as the relationship between humans and a “higher power”. Nature plays a dominant role in all living things, and can be argued as one of the highest powers that is tangible to humans. In nature, the element of water is always present and is vital for life on earth.

daniel finland & warren scott THREE EIGHTHS
The creative team behind the newly established Three Eighths label is Warren Scott of Victoria, B.C. and Daniel Finlan of Peterborough, Ontario. The duo met while studying Fashion Design at Ryerson University in Toronto. Upon discovering a shared design sensibility, and a complementary skillset, they decided to create a capsule menswear collection together.
This capsule collection is based on the idea that ¸>L ^LHY SH`LYZ [OH[ NV VU HUK JVTL Vќ K\YPUN one’s personal style grows and develops over the course of the day. There is a simplicity and time.
