British Museum Magazine

When the British Museum Friends decided they wanted to take their British Museum Magazine into a new direction, Thomas Manss & Company developed a design which gave the magazine a more popular presence. Rather than sparsely illustrated academic texts, the magazine design now matches generous photographs to in-depth editorial content. A similar approach informed the cover designs: The main feature is announced with a simple yet striking visual.
