PRINT is a general-interest magazine, engagingly written by cultural reporters and critics who look at design in its social, political, and historical contexts. From newspapers and book covers to Web-based motion graphics, from corporate branding to indie-rock posters, from exhibitions to cars to monuments, PRINT shows its audience of designers, art directors, illustrators, photographers, educators, students, and enthusiasts of popular culture why our world looks the way it looks, and why the way it looks matters. PRINT’s design matters too: In 2005 it unveiled a sweeping, cohesive redesign that gracefully embodies its sharp, elegant analysis and reporting.

PRINT is a three-time winner of the American Society of Magazine Editors’ National Magazine Award for General Excellence (Circulation Under 100,000), most recently in 2005. Here’s what ASME said about PRINT: “With a vitality that bursts off its pages, PRINT presents a broad spectrum of topics demonstrating the significance of design and visual communication in our world. From its controversial Sex Issue, with its analysis of the effects of explicit sexual imagery, to the election-coverage issue, PRINT expands our understanding of how design influences everything.”
