newspaper design  

Definition

  • Newspaper design, as a specialized area of practice, is a relatively recent addition to the journalism industry. Until the 1960s, the organization of printed elements on newspaper pages depended largely on two main journalistic customs: the first being the standing or repeating elements such as the nameplate and the second being the editor's daily hierarchical decisions for newspaper elements that change according to the day's news stories.
