Neuer Umschau Buchverlag – Katalog 02/15

Description

“What happens between the covers?” is the guiding theme. Grey paperboard becomes the main protagonist as an unusual choice. The page swapping (deleted page enclosed) from cover to contents appears without haptic incongruity. Monochrome vector graphics were chosen for the cover design. The textured feel of the coarse cardboard pages is used to convey a particular set of values. Infographics suited to the topics take up the main questions, lead over to the respective theme of the following pages.

Statement of the jury

The catalog design is visually and tactilely impressive with its original, creative ideas and bold individuality in which the quality of the paper and typography play key roles. This is an inventive, enthralling medium that generates curiosity.
