In my point of view, Stéphane Mallarmé (1842-1898) and Mark Porter (1960-) are two personalities with an important role in communication design that shaped an entire way of creating and thinking editorial design, in specific the book and the newspaper. They came from different realities and historical periods, but the spirit of reinventing something that seemed static it’s incredible, and an example for designers in nowadays.
Mallarmé and Porter show us that the book as well as the newspaper, are objects in constant evolution, and there aren’t any limits between them. The challenge of editorial objects in general consists in reinventing the experience of engaging with the paper. In other hand, like Mark Porter does in newspapers, the connection with the digital platforms is crucial.
