Magazine covers set to get annoying
Posted on 10. Sep, 2008 by thedirtymexican in design, other cool stuff
Esquire have gone all out gimmick styles for their 75th anniversary edition with the first ever digital magazine cover.
This momentous occasion was brought to us by the ugly-assed Ford Flex which despite its “futuristic design and advanced technologies” looks like the biggest Range Rover clone ever. The technology powering the ad is E-Ink, the same guys who made the awesome looking Amazon Kindle.
Now I’m torn here - on the one hand, it looks like a shitty banner ad has been placed on the front of the magazine, but on the other, DEGOURGET enthusiastically supports anything that makes the world look more like Blade Runner (When I grow up I just know I’m going to be the best Replicant/Cylon hunter the galaxy has ever seen).
Check the video above for the underwhelming reality.
