Limelight Magazine, 2020–2023
Redesign of Australia’s longstanding classical music and arts publication. Limelight, formerly ABC Classic magazine, is published eleven times a year and covers nation wide art and culture including dance, opera, music and theatre.
The redesign came from a need to consolidate resources and maintain the printed magazine for subscribers. Working closely with the printers, a reduced page count with saddle stitch binding on premium paper stock was agreed on and the internal editorial structure divided between longer features and shorter front and end matter.
Using typefaces from a single foundry was one of the decisions we made early on to strengthen the Limelight visual style. Rongel and Grosa by Feliciano type give a beautifully legible read.
