Times Redesign

On Saturday, January 24, 2009, The Times appeared in its new incarnation. The new broadsheet design (maybe we call it “retro”) harkens to its past and leaves today’s info-byte/tabloid skimmers with something to sink their eye teeth into. Though the typographic re-think leaves me cold, I do like the fact that the new tabloid inserts denote that speciality they were meant to have, and it’s like opening the Sunday paper when I was a kid.
