Magazine Design that Works focuses on 20 different magazines and what makes them work graphically, and how their look was conceived, designed, and executed. The projects featured range in style and scope, and examine the work of the top designers in the business from all around the world. Providing a virtual 'blueprint' for each project, comparisons of rough draft and final drafts illustrate the process, and the development of familiar magazines are traced over their lifespan.
A well-structured instructional book on magazine design. Of particular use were the analyses of how specific magazines had improved and developed their designs.
