Mark Porter

If you want to know how I plan, structure, create and deliver #editorialdesign projects, my online course with @Domestika on Design Systems for Editorial and Digital Media is now available. domestika.org/en/courses/302…

@QuentinNewark I’m moving to the other app which will probably get me blocked if I name it!

@IamMarkPorter Bye Mark.

I haven’t posted here for years but it’s now time to close my account. Hope to see you over at the alternative, same handle!

And then, there is work so precisely on-point that it feels inevitable. Bravo to Mark Porter and his crew for a dazzling reimagining and new identity for the Irish Independent masterbrand. It is evolving from a disparate group of newspapers, websites and apps into a one mutil-platform news platform And here’s its new flag. It speaks to a legendary history in a way that is absolutely future-facing. So, bravo to the gifted Dublin-based teams who did this work, including Clare Bell, and Max Phillips, illustrator Andy Goodman and Smörgåsbord Studio for animation. And congratulations to The Independent for asking the right people to do the right work. 💚🧡

@briancollins1 Thank you Brian, very generous of you 🙏

@brfootball Hello @brfootball who does your illustration/photomontages like the Lewandowski one?

A year later, Robert Lewandowski is on the other side 🪞

I did a little podcast for my studio mates @myttonwilliams talking about editorial, identities, collaboration and maths! Search Meet the Maker or listen here: madeinbath.co.uk/podcast-mark-p…

@arusbridger @nytimes I wonder if that is with my cover or the remake?

The @nytimes celebrity bookshelf detective has spotted Play it Again on Yo-Yo Ma’s shelves. #notveryhumblebrag

I’m in

@narcsville @gray Iirc it’s as close full frame as it could be while fitting the cover format

Guardian Weekend, 1997. One of the all time great magazine covers.

Too kind 🙏

@Malarkey A lot but most annoyingly angle on £10/hr is slightly off

@markboulton I’ve long been interested in the concept of “friction “ in design, but applying Occam’s razor (and what we know about this government) would suggest this is just incompetent typography

Our friends at #c_ll_ct_v_ly are publishing a series of mini-magazines showcasing unseen work by designers and artists. The latest one reveals 8 of our projects that never quite made it! Limited edition of 100, details at c-visuals.online/6-Mark-Porter

Yesterday was 100 years since the birth of Aldo Novarese, designer of (amongst others), Eurostile, the ubiquitous sci-fi typeface. This is good (in Italian though):

Congrats to friends at @eyemagazine on #eye100, amazing issue with a rare face cover featuring @Mr_Turley. That’s what I call eye contact

We designed a #coronavirus photography special for @Internazionale, a privilege to work with such amazing images. Thanks to @magculture for write-up here: magculture.com/internazionale…
