Breaking news from the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
This memo went out from Dee Dee D'Asaro, Print Senior Editor/Visuals to the visuals staff:
Wonderful news!
We are near the end of negotiations, and it looks like Lucie Lacava of Lacava Design Inc. will most likely be helping us redesign the Sunday newspaper.
Lucie is known for her elegant use of typography and architecture. Her portfolio includes over 60 projects, and the largest paper she's worked on is the Chicago Tribune. She was instrumental in designing/launching the National Post in Canada six years ago amid a highly competitive national market. More recently, she redesigned the Baltimore Sun and the Telegraph-Journal, and is finishing up a redesign of La Libre Belgique in Brussels. She is the originator of the much copied "hot L" concept for teases. I remember being inspired years ago by her use of spot color in her first major redesign: Le Devoir in Montreal. Three of her projects have been voted among the "World's Best Designed" by the Society of News Design for a grand total of 10 times.
The staff met with Lucie today and looks forward to all the changes in the future.
In the meantime, check out Atlanta's work at AJC.com and Lucie's portfolio at lacavadesign.ca.
