Silent Covers

MAGAZINES in a newsstands act like young birds in a nest. They all scream for your attention. On the front of the magazines images and cover lines tumble over each other. The general opinion is that the crowded covers give you an idea what the magazine is about. But often it is the just opposite. These magazines below show a masthead and perhaps a dateline and a selling line in combination with a strong image. The cover of Graphis is designed by Walter Breker and Peter Liedmeier did Roeping.
