Similarly, the Bon Appétit logo has been “redrawn” by Commercial Type—the studio that recently designed new fonts for The Guardian and T: The New York Times Style Magazine—but not altogether reimagined. “We added a few more thicks and thins, which I felt gave it a little bit more elegance,” says Outland. “It’s super subtle, and most people probably won’t notice, but for us design nerds it’s kind of exciting.” [caption id="attachment_138889"...
