Linkiesta paper

From Linkiesta (translated):

In Milan and Rome, and throughout the summer, a special issue of our newspaper will be distributed. Twenty four pages, broadsheet format, ten euros. (…)

It takes courage to make a paper newspaper in 2020 and in full pandemic, but Linkiesta has this courage and has decided to also become paper, starting this morning and throughout the summer.(…)

With the experience as editor of IL, the award-winning magazine of Sole 24 Ore for innovative design, Christian Rocca invited the art director Giovanni Cavalleri and the illustrators Marta Signori and Alvvino to design the paper version of Linkiesta.

Inspired by text-lead political magazines and newspapers from the 60s and 70s, the publication features illustrations by Marta Signori and a centrefold collage by Alvvino. Printed in Italy by Grafiche Antiga on 70gr Holmen Book paper in black and Pantone Blue 072U.

The typography pairs Arnhem and Arnhem Fine by Fred Smeijers with various widths of Fixture by Alejandro Paul.
