étapes international is a quarterly 150 page magazine focused on contemporary graphic design. The magazine is structured in 3 parts. The «News» pages have a strongly visual presentation relying on a panorama of images which show recent projects created in the areas of visual identity, commercial and cultural visual communication, packaging, editorial and on-screen design. The «Substance and Style» section consists of feature articles on transverse, monographic, geographical or historic themes as well as case studies and reports. These ideas are elaborated on in the «Time for Text» section. Essays and reviews of books provide in-depth details as well as further opportunities for reflection and inspiration. Originally derived from étapes: the monthly French graphic design magazine, going forward, étapes international will be published quarterly in three different language editions: English, Spanish and Chinese, using material that is created by culturally specific as well as international authors and contributors.
