Since the last post on this Blog Gabriel Design has been a hive of activity, although sadly with little headline grabbing news. There is much in the pipeline to reveal at a later date, but unlike BP this pipeline doesn't leak! However the last Gabriel Design post was regarding the fantastic experiment from
Wallpaper* Magazine which allowed you design your own cover for the August 'Handmade' issue. You can read more about the design process I took in putting my design together
here.
Last week saw the release of the August issue and the letterboxes of designers and the design aware were hit will hundreds of different designs, inlcuing mine here at Gabriel Design HQ.

There was, on first inspection, a subtle difference to my original design as my name and address now appeared on the front cover (to aid the delivery). However in keeping with the 'handmade' theme Wallpaper* had already considered this and supplied each recipient with a handy sticker to place over the address and create the final finished design.

Once affixed the design was complete and I was satisfied with the look and feel of the magazine, especially in that it was in keeping with the new look design of Gabriel Design itself. Sadly I didn't make the inside back page list of Wallpaper's* favoutite designs, but I for one am very pleased.
