HOW Magazine March 2013

HOW Magazine's International Design Awards Annual is back and you won't want to miss it! This issue is entirely devoted to the best print design work from around the world. But just because we're celebrating printed designs, don't think we're luddites. You’ll still find our Interactive column on page 180 and for this issue, we asked Marío R. Garcia and Reed Reibstein to explore how they taught themselves to design their first ebook for the iPad after many, many years as print publishing experts.

In line with the international theme we also lined up a feature covering six German design firms worth watching. We decided to turn a spotlight on Germany and take a closer look at the amazing work being produced by six noteworthy design firms (OK, five firms and one student) doing work worth admiring. Then we'll talk strategy. “Design strategy” is a popular industry buzzword, but do you know what it really means? In our feature, "Understanding Design Strategy," Terry Lee Stone breaks it down so that you can utilize design strategy to elevate your work and win the respect of your clients.
