Print Magazine

Founded in 1940 by William Edwin Rudge, PRINT is dedicated to showcasing the extraordinary in design on and off the page. Covering a field as broad as communication itself—publication and book design, animation and motion graphics, corporate branding and rock posters, exhibitions and street art—PRINT covers commercial, social, and environmental design from every angle. Engagingly written by cultural reporters and critics who look at design in its social, political, and historical contexts, PRINT explores why our world looks the way it looks, and why the way it looks matters.

In 2009, PRINT was awarded the American Society of Magazine Editors’ National Magazine Award for General Excellence in its circulation category for the second year in a row. A five-time winner, PRINT has been cited numerous times by the Society of Publication Designers, AIGA, The Art Directors Club, and The Type Directors Club.

In late 2019, the PRINT brand and Printmag.com were acquired by PRINT Holdings LLC, comprised of industry veterans Debbie Millman (Design Matters), Steven Heller (The Daily Heller), Andrew Gibbs (Dieline), Jessica Deseo (Dieline), Deb Aldrich (D’NA Company) and Laura Des Enfants (D’NA Company).

Together, this team is committed to carrying the brand forward in innovative new ways while honoring its deep legacy.

PRINT is now available to an international audience online at printmag.com. The annual PRINT Awards recognizes extraordinary work across comprehensive categories targeting every aspect of graphic design, from identities to type design to web design to concept work. Presiding over the entries is an annually selected global jury representing an broad range of targeted disciplines and perspectives. Top winners are featured on PRINT, among other prizes
