»Es war mir ein Vergnügen und eine Ehre Teil dieses Projekts zu sein.«

Impressions of the release of the first issue of BRUT Magazine at the annual »Werkschau« in July 2012
BRUT Magazine was a main project during the 3. and 4. semester of my Communication Design studies at HTW Berlin in a team of 14 (+2) students.

Our task: Create an online magazine that shows the life and work at the design department of our university.

The process was split in 2 parts: The first semester we spent researching the market and developing different concepts for our potential magazine. The second semester, we finalized the concept, produced the content for our first issue and worked on the interface and interaction design. 
 
Team: 
Eckhard Berchner, Johannes Fait, Delia Fröhlich, Nico Furler, Martin Heßmann, Carolin Kaspereit, Peter Kessel, Markus Kluge, Daniel Kranz,  Philipp Kühn, Alexander Pasenau, Stephanie Rietz, Peter Rudolph, Stefanie Schubert, Jennifer Weber & Maxim Zaykin
 
Supervising professors:
Prof. Andreas Ingerl & Prof. Daniela Hensel

»Bezüglich der Gestaltung von Hochschulmagazinen dürfte die HTW Berlin neue Maßstäbe gesetzt haben.
[…] Als Mit-Herausgeberin des Dmig-Online Magazins bin ich zutiefst beeindruckt und hoffe,
dass das Magazin in Serie geht! Hut ab, Jungs und Mädels!«

»Ein Studienprojekt, dass mit anderen Projekten kaum gemessen werden kann, was den Arbeitsaufwand, den Aufwand an Konzeptions- und Gestaltungskraft und an Engagement angeht.«
