Designing Editors
I have to give Paul Ritter, Jane's design director, credit for breaking the cover mold for the typical young-women's-service-slash-celebrity-style magazine; the full-bleed intense closeup photo makes quite a statement. For a magazine that puts readers on a first-name basis with its contributors and sources, it's appropriately engaging. And it's a needed departure from Jane's old cover style, which had young celebs in 2/3-body shots, posed in inconsistent settings and styles. The logo added subtle heft, which gives it a bit more impact; there are fewer coverlines (phew!) and a focused color palette. The cover typefaces work well together: the fat, serif Belucian stands out, and Akzidenz Grotesk is a well-matched companion. More here. Email This Post |
