With the Tribune newspaper redesigns taking place this summer (Orlando, Chicago, Baltimore, Hartford . . .) and the just-debuted redesign of The Times of London, it might be a good time to share a recently published chapter of the top Newspaper and Newspaper Web site redesigns published by the World Editors Forum - Trends in Newsrooms 2008.
The in-depth report by the World Editors Forum presents the most important developments in today’s newsrooms with detailed case studies of some of the world’s most innovative newsrooms. I was asked to be part of a panel that included world-class editorial design colleagues Ally Palmer (U.K.) , Lucie Lacava (Canada), Jördis Guzmán Bulla (Germany), and Peter Ong (Australia).
We all nominated the top efforts over the 2006-2007 time period and the World Editors forum staff reported, researched further and produced this excellent report.
No telling which of this year’s Trib makeovers might make a future list, but as you can see - the world standard for excellence in newspapers is very high - both for original content and consistently excellent presentation, page-to-page.
