Overmatter

Eye meets the Newspaper Club as they win the graphics category of the Brit Designs of the Year. Pictures of digital production can never match those of the printing process!

The ASME Awards: 51 magazines x 23 categories, New York and The New Yorker with ten nominations each. UPDATE: Full design lists here.

Also nominated, Men’s Health, with the same front covers as last year, again (thanks James).
