Print is an American design and culture website that began as Print, A Quarterly Journal of the Graphic Arts, in 1940,[1] and continued publishing a physical edition through the end of 2017 as Print.[2]
As a printed publication, Print was a general-interest magazine, written by cultural reporters and critics who looked at design in its social, political, and historical contexts, from newspapers and book covers to Web-based motion graphics, from corporate branding to indie-rock posters. During its run, Print won five National Magazine Awards[3] and a number of Folio: Eddies, including Best Full Issue in its final year.[4] Print ceased publication in 2017, with a promise to focus the brand on "a robust and thriving online community."[5] Its publisher, F+W Media, declared bankruptcy in 2019,[6] and a group of independent partners subsequently purchased PRINT from the company that arose out of F+W, Peak Media Properties.[7]
