Imported Editorials – Self-Service, Paris
Self Service is bound and styled in such a way to almost take on the quality of a coffee table book. Each issue begins to seem like a work of art, using interesting juxtapositions of images, unique layouts, and varied types of paper (hi-gloss vs. matte) throughout the magazine. Each issue is thick, consisting mainly of fashion photography and light on the interviews and articles. Perhaps my favorite foreign magazine, each page seems better than the last, using beautiful photographs with creative layouts and captions to provide the reader with a visual treat.
