Description: The 99U Quarterly is a print publication offering our best creative insights packaged in a beautifully designed pixel-free format.
The fourth issue, like the ones before, was a two-color combination of black, white, and yellow (Pantone 116 U). However, for the first time ever we introduced CMYK on select pages to give more attention to pieces that two-color wouldn’t do justice.
We eschewed normal headlines and pullouts for a more human, handwritten style. And when we did rely on type treatments, using the font Surveyor we played with the letters as illustration. Editorially, we introduced several new sections that focused less on paragraphs of text allowing us to experiment with more visual elements like flowcharts, while also highlighting our interviews of notable creatives with powerful portrait images.
