Eleftheros Typos, the best designed european newspaper

The greek daily Eleftheros Typos (Free Press) has been awarded best designed european newpaper on this edition of the European newspaper Awards, on the national daily category.
The Mayo News (Ireland) was chosen best local, El Periódico de Catalunya (Spain) best regional and Welt am Somtag (Germany), best weekly.

I got an enormous luck working in the InnovAtion team in charge of the redesign of the daily. Great luck, colaborating with great professionals as Juan Antonio Giner, Juan Señor, Javier Errea, Marta Botero, Mike Fairhead, Gabriel Sama, Pablo Errea or Eduardo Tessler, and also Pablo Ramírez, the other infographics consultant. Maybe the two weeks of my life when I've learned the most.

About the graphics, which is this blog about, here you are some examples of the graphics which are being made at the ET infographics department. InnovAtion idea for teh graphics was, as I hope is seen, clarity, simplicity, as teh marvelous design by Javier Errea. Colors as guide.

New graphics for new Eleftheros Tipos (1)

Here you are some examples of the completely renewed Eleftheros Tipos (here you can take a look to the first issue). There aren't a lot yet, but enogh to notice the concept: clear, simple and clean graphics, in armony with the outstanding new design. The greek paper has six infographics artists in staff, with Kali Labrou as head of the department.
I will add more, with comparisons with old model.





On new infographics concept has worked Pablo Ramirez and myself, based on the great design conceptsfor the paper developed by Javier Errea

The way Eleftheros Tipos was

Tomorrow, Wednesday 23th, it's the release of the new Eleftheros Tipos, a new journalistic concept for one of the lassic newspapers of Athens. This InnovAtion project is a big step on the change of the journalistc market in Greece.
As we say, Show don't Tell!, and as this blog is dedicated to infographics, I show some of the graphics thet were done on the old Eleftheros Tipos. From tomorrow, I'll be uploading some of the new graphics that will be publishing and talk something about the change, in which I had the honour of collaborating as consultant, with professionals like Marta Botero, Javier Errea, Juan Señor, Michael Fairhead, Gabriel Sama, Pablo Ramírez and, of course Juan Antonio Giner, and all the newsroom of the journal.
