Kluger Hans is a unique literature magazine with a rebellious edge that gives young writers a change to get published. Each issue has a specific theme that drives the selected content and its graphic translation. Issue #44 focuses on “BLUR”.

The blur effect throughout the magazine was not made digitally. Glass artist Veerle Verschooren cut letterforms in colored glass and transparent textured glass. Then we printed title pages and starting capitals and re-photographed them under the glass so the texts distorted in an analogous way.

A high-gloss UV spot varnish completed the cover.
