Redesigned TNT to launch tomorrow

leave a comment »

We’ve been working on a redesign for some time now. It was designed as an update, but also another way we are combining with The Olympian. Now the TNT is editing and designing all of the Oly out of the Tacoma newsroom. So the papers will look pretty much the same, other than the flag.

“We” is misleading. I didn’t come remotely near anything to do with the redesign. It’s nothing close to my job. I used to be a big design nerd, so I have watched it closely. There are some things I would do differently, but then again I am not a professional designer. It has a big KC Star feel to me. That’s not a bad thing.

One thing I do like is the paper and the Web site have the same feel, design-wise.

I could only find a black and white version. The flag is blue ala KC.

Here’s the editor’s column explaining the design.
