the believer Magazine, front and back covers,
- Design: Dave Eggers. Illustrations: Charles
Burns. The busy but readable covers of this literary
magazine use slab serif text in multiple sizes and
weights to advertise the content found inside. The line
illustrations integrate comfortably with the text. A full
table of contents appears on the back cover, providing
readers with an easy-to-use interface. Influenced by
nineteenth-century almanacs, the design of The Believer
uses borders and frames to draw attention to the content
and create a memorable visual identity.
