Graphic Design Magazines

Graphic design evolved during the late nineteenth century and trade magazines were crucial to this business. Initially trade magazines established standards for printing and typesetting but businesses wanted more aesthetically pleasing layouts, therefor magazine editors were forced to come up with new advances in design.   An example of these magazines would be the Berlin-based called Das Plakat (The poster) that focused on conventional and avant-garde sensibilities and was founded in 1910 by Hans Josef Sachs.  In 1921 commercial artist and typographers were influenced by futurism, De Stijl, Constructivism, and Dada; Artists began to apply these methods to their commercial work.  Many German printing and graphic industries had been offered a full dose of the new type and layout known as New Typography.  The roles of these magazines was to record, observe, and report on the field, but some also excited the passions of designers and altered the popular perception in styles of design.  After World War II the design Graphis was the most significant graphic design clarion.  It was Zurich-based, multilingual international magazine founded in 1946.  These international focused magazines are not trade oriented but rather cultural-concerned focusing on the design and visual culture.
