The project

The project

Sidestep had outgrown its first design. Long interviews were squeezed into a grid made for short ones, and the masthead disappeared on a crowded shelf.

The new grid has a wide column for the story and a narrow one for everything the story reminds you of. The masthead takes a step to the side on every issue.

A grid with room to wander.

Subscriptions are up by a third, and readers send in photographs of the margins.
