Sunday Publishing’s slick and informative Modus Magazine covers all aspects of land, property, construction and the built environment we live in, an area Ray is familiar with following his architectural past! This month focuses on the geopolitical, industrial and economical “Balance of Power” and how this balance is soon to shift and the inevitable effects this will have of the industries professions in coming years.

With a subject matter both abstract and specific, Ray was granted creative freedom to illustrate the topics in his well defined style, applying his trademark textures, dramatic shadows and abstract shapes with his thorough understanding of the subject matter itself!

The leading article features experts from different fields asked for their often controversial opinions on how and why power relationships will change and the likely effect it will have on the land, property and construction sectors.
