How the FAZ has changed

September 19th, 2008


Dramatic front page from the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung today. Its not the idea or execution that caught my attention (I find it very slow for a daily paper and not that clever) but the fact that they’d give so much space to a conceptual image on the front page — this from the paper which until the last redesign never ran pictures on the front (with the exception of September 12th 2001). In Frankfurt this is a seismic shift! (Thanks to  JH for the tip & photo)

    That is a lot of white space for any front cover, especially a daily.
