Interviewed in The Independent, Harold Evans has some words of advice on the subject of newspaper design:

“I don’t want to be in a position of criticising modern design. I think it’s wonderful. But I do utter these cautions: don’t dismiss the classic news photograph in black and white; don’t exaggerate the use of colour; and do think, as well as the visual appearance, ‘What the hell is it saying?’ Why are newspapers losing circulation?”
