Aprašymas

Magazines have always played a central role in our visual culture and their position at the forefront of modern communication has made them a constant and vital source of the latest graphic design styles and techniques. magCulture explores the current trends and creative design styles in contemporary magazines from around the world, ranging from mass-market to experimental titles, including SleazeNation and Mined from UK, List and Nylon from the US, Eat from Japan and Neo2 from Spain. The book opens with Jeremy Leslie's overview of magazine design today, followed by five illustrated essays by prominent figures in the field. These focus on the main areas of contemporary magazine publishing: consumer magazines, customer magazines, newspaper supplements, independent 'microzines' and webzines. The main section is made up of examples of international magazines, explored through the five elements that are crucial to magazine design - format, covers, pace, words and pictures. Additional interviews interspersed throughout focus on key as well as niche issues, from redesigns and branding to an exploration of the Japanese magazine industry. Offering insight info the thought process of some of the most creative forces of work today, and a visual guide to over 100 innovative magazines, magCulture is an important sourcebook for graphic designers or anyone interested in, and influenced by, current trends in magazine publishing.
