To Crash
To Crash is a magazine that dives into systems collapsing – from global finance to racing circuits to computer code. The 2007–2008 financial meltdown, Fernando Alonso’s spectacular barrel roll, and the dreaded Blue Screen of Death form case studies where ambition collides with fragility. Each section reframes crashes as more than disaster – they are human stories of vulnerability and resilience. Alongside Michael Burry’s predictions sit crash-test schematics, wreckage photos, and experimental console repairs. Design choices amplify this tension: GF Smith’s Mandarin orange paper echoes catastrophe’s palette, while typography balances chaos with mathematical precision. More than documentation, To Crash is personal – a love letter to systems both brilliant and brittle, an exploration of how moments of impact reveal the delicate balance between order and collapse.
