How Businessweek Is Reinventing the Magazine Cover

by sbrothier
Chances are a Bloomberg Businessweek cover has stopped you in your tracks at some point: Maybe it was the brilliant cat hurricane GIF, or airplanes humping mid-air, or the most anti-Apple typography ever slapped over Tim Cook's face. But behind the provocative graphic design is a smart strategy that's changing the way publications are made, both online and off.

BIS Publishers

by sbrothier & 2 others
This very attractively finished typographic memory game includes 25 variations of the letter ‘A’, each in a different letter type. Players attempt to find the matching A’s in the same letter type. The player who has the highest number of matching letters wins the game. Typographic information about the letter is included on the card, and a separate folder provides a general history of the typography. This is an enjoyable and instructive game for graphic designers and anyone who is fascinated by letter types.

manystuff.org — Graphic Design daily selection » Blog Archive » Tout le monde est graphiste

by sbrothier
“A l’heure de la rédaction de ce mémoire, je constate un rapport extrêmement inégal entre l’amplitude que prend, dans nos études de design graphique, la notion de “graphisme d’auteur” et sa place réelle dans la pratique de ce métier. Je mesure également la distance qui distingue le monde des auteurs, monde savant regardant tantôt avec dédain, tantôt avec amusement les autres formes de graphisme, et celui des amateurs, ignorant presque tout du graphisme et à fortiori du graphisme d’auteur. J’ai par conséquent eu la volonté de me dégager de la vision unilatérale que me propose (malgré lui) l’enseignement en communication visuelle en étudiant le graphisme le plus opposé au graphisme d’auteur: le graphisme amateur. ”
