Скачать или смотреть OFF BLACK - A look behind the scenes with Arjowiggins Graphic

OFF BLACK Magazine has exclusively selected Arjowiggins papers to launch their newly designed magazine during this Autumn’s global fashion weeks. The front cover is printed on Keaykolour, the iconic uncoated paper range designed for premium printing; whilst Cyclus Offset, the uncoated, natural 100% recycled paper has been used for the inner pages.

OFF BLACK magazine is a biannual beauty, fashion, arts and culture magazine in London. The exclusive publication is described as experimental and fun and is known for bringing visibility to the new generation of creatives. Each issue of OFF BLACK magazine is totally reinvented to coincide with the event it is supporting, from the choice of paper to the typeface used. At this year’s London Fashion Week, the concept that Off Black has chosen is ‘lost’ to refer to lost tribes, lost community, lost trades and the circular economy.

In support of the theme the magazine chose to showcase recycled paper in all its splendour. Cyclus Offset 100% recycled 115 gsm was specifically chosen for the text pages because of its unique subtle shade, high-quality texture and its environmental benefits that supported the publications ‘lost’ theme.

For the cover, six different versions have been designed and printed on 6 shades of Keaykolour 300 gsm. The new vibrant colours of Atoll, Chilli Pepper, Lipstick, Indian Yellow, Deep Black along with Snow White were chosen to help bring to life the eye-catching imagery.

The magazine was printed by F E Burman on an HP indigo 12000 press with both Keaykolour and Cyclus supplied and stocked by Antalis
