The magazine “form” exists since 1957 and was always dedicated to all areas of creative design. We are their partner for their online activities ever since form started to get online in 1997, when Mathias Wollin created the first concept for an ever evolving online magazine. The current version, the third in a row, is adopted to the new and fresh design of the magazine in 2006 and was developed together with the designers of the magazine, ade hauser lacour, Frankfurt.
The website wants to stay as close to the print design as possible in order to translate the reading experience from the print magazine to the online version. Responsible for this are the typographical character, the careful and precise use of typography and graphical elements and functional solutions like the possibility to browse the current as well as all former issues of the printed magazine.
A job forum, numerous service offers all about the topic and the possibility to subscribe to the print magazine online offer the user lots of informations and the publisher the marketing possibilities he needs.
The daily work on the content of the website, the regular email newsletter and the commercial banners shown on the page is all done with our content management system aspekt:ratio, and because that system is so easy to use there is no need for a lot of training for the editors.
