Project Description
The New Republic is the premier US journal of liberal opinion, dedicated to addressing today’s most critical issues with commentary on politics, culture and the arts. Founded in 1914 as an intellectual call to arms for reform, the magazine has evolved over the past century into a modern media organization with the mission to respond to the current political moment as changing conditions demand.
Pentagram has created a new brand identity framework for TNR that reinvigorates the magazine with a bold look that matches its forward-thinking content. The program carries through a new editorial design for the print publication and digital design for the website. The update pays homage to the magazine's roots in the Progressive Era but adds a larger sense of the contemporary.
