Redesign for the SAH annual magazine
Client
Swiss Workers' Relief Organization SAH, Schaffhausen
The idea
After the SAH Schaffhausen annual magazine appeared four times with the same look (see our articles on the magazines "Wege," "Aufbruch," and Ankommen ," it was time for a redesign. In consultation with those responsible at SAH, we further developed, refined, and adapted the concept. The magazine is now called "Courage"—a fitting title, in our opinion, given that it takes a great deal of courage for refugees to immerse themselves in a new culture and find their way again after often traumatic experiences in life. SAH does a great job for these people.
After considering various options for the bold, monochrome cover, we now opted for a cover featuring a picture. The first issue with a photo on the cover sets the bar high: Nataliia at the table tennis club is a superb cover shot. We were delighted to not only create the conceptual work and the design, but also to create the photos for the magazine. The two photo reports at the Schaffhausen Boxing Club and the Neuhausen Table Tennis Club were particularly impressive. We met a lot of great people and were able to capture their portraits with our cameras. It's also cool that SAH took up our suggestion to produce the reportage section (a new section we also introduced as part of the redesign) in black and white.
The result is an all-around fantastic print product that provides a fantastic insight into the valuable work of the SAH. You can download the magazine as a PDF from the SAH website (at the bottom of the page).
