Broadsheet newspapers

Article Abstract:

The typographical design of broadsheet newspapers in the UK could be improved to increase their readability. Insufficient research has been carried out into what the reader requires. The Independent newspaper, brought out in 1986, has changed its format for what is generally considered the worst. It has become more complicated in layout. According to Matthew Symonds, this is to extend the editorial foundations of the newspaper.

Each day the curtain rises

Article Abstract:

Ian Schrager Hotels' properties in New York, Miami Beach, and Los Angeles use glitzy, cutting-edge design to attract wealthy celebrities and those who want to be near such people. Hotels are primarily about ideas, according to Schrager, while design is used to supply the visual images that communicate those ideas. Schrager does an excellent job of using design to create an image, according to Coopers & Lybrand's Arthur Adler.
