Christie’s Magazine (2019–)
Proto Grotesk (Production Type) is the typeface chosen for the redesign of Christie’s Magazine. Published six times a year, the magazine is the centerpiece of the editorial output by the British auction house.
It contains an inspiring edit of culture, collecting and luxury by leading writers, photographers and tastemakers, uncovers the personalities behind the greatest art and provides a comprehensive look at highlights from our upcoming auction seasons and Private Sales. The magazine is delivered to Christie’s most important clients around the world.
Five years after they first worked on Christie’s Magazine, London-based studio B.A.M. again was in charge of the redesign.
For the September-October issue of Christie’s Magazine we’ve refreshed our look and feel. A bold new cover design, revamped typography and an expanded auction highlights section are now presented in an even more elegant format — changes that are all geared to expanding and enriching the conversation with like-minded art lovers.
A custom version of Proto Grotesk is used throughout. To enrich the stylistic palette of the editorial design, the family was expanded to include italics.
