DOMO 4 / 2015

15.12.15

Arne Vogt and his team are responsible for the cover design of the German news magazine «Der Spiegel» week after week. Fifteen years on the job the head of the covers department still wonders which of their drafts will sell better at the newsstand. While the Hamburg crew doesn’t have a magic formula, they still keep winning awards for their work.
The United States of America are in the process of electing a new president – male or female. Those who seek this office spend their campaigns attacking the media, struggling for poll points, acting like outsiders – and laughing at themselves.
A digital presence does not stand a chance against a beautiful magazine in your hands, says Steffen Kragh. He is the CEO of the Danish media enterprise Egmont, headquartered in Copenhagen. With over 700 magazines the company is successfully established in the market.
