The Typofiles #66: W Magazine // Black Arts
This page was an intro to a W Magazine fashion spread last year — I became slightly obsessed with it at the time and had it pinned above my desk for many months. I really like the use of Helvetica paired with the op-art graphic. It’s so very reminiscent of a vintage Swiss poster design and I am Swiss-obsessed so there you go. If this was a contract of some kind, I would sign my name (in blood) without even reading the fine print — I like the looks of it that much.

Just absolutely gorgeous! I love minimalism. If I wasn’t so feminine, I’d dress in strictly black and white, with a touch of Helvetica!

I completely love that aesthetic. The simple, minimalist type, colors and layout… Love all the type in one area with a large ambiguous graphic.. Just my style.

Really makes me want to see the rest of the spread now. But where are the tittles?! Oooh, I finally got to use that word in a sentence without making an immature typography joke…

I really like this. Simple, clean, and good use of Helvetica.
