Anouk Rehorek
January 8th, 2010Even though I’ve never done it, I love magazine design. Something about seeing a well-designed spread get’s my creative juices flowing. It’s unfortunate that the magazine industry is hurting because I’d hate to lose all the great creative.
Some of the best magazine designs I’ve seen are by Swiss graphic designer, Anouk Rehorek. His use of black and white color along with serif type is stunning and the way he integrates imagery really creates a perfect balance.

I’m back in action folks, sorry for the short hiatus.
While I was away I came across this new blog called 80 Magazine that features classic design and typography from the 50’s and 60’s. It instantly has become one of my favorite blogs to read by featuring work by Gerstner, Brockmann, Lohse, Crouwel and Emil Ruder, who’s poster is pictured above.
The blog has a lot of pieces that I’ve never seen, including this collection of posters by Emil Ruder.
