The Hour Magazine project by Bibliotheque is one of those rare projects where all the stars seem to align. It’s clear that every formal design decision was directly derived from the subtle hourglass concept that is implied in the negative space of the H glyph from Ludovic Balland’s Stanley typeface. From typeface selection to the brilliantly subtle mark this work is conceptually bulletproof for the content, aesthetically perfect for it’s audience and just so damn thoughtful!
