“The 1990s were to magazine design what the 1960s were to rock music, a period of experimentation and resounding lack of clarity, but ultimately a time that determined the new direction of the genre, New titles on the market took design to new heights. In some cases design was the format, it was ponded over and marvelled at rather than to support or surround the articles, the world was changing, the Berlin wall had fallen, pcs were becoming more ubiquitous and the internet was breaking out of its shell, magazines such as wired challenged readers to see, understand and interact with the world in new ways, layouts required readers to turn the magazines sideways and upside down to read text”. (Magazine design that works, by Stacey King)
