Pentagram

Poetry Magazine October 2024

Typography

Custom typographic lettering for October 2024’s cover of the oldest poetry monthly publication in the English-speaking world, Poetry Magazine.

Poetry Magazine is the oldest monthly poetry publication in the English-speaking world.

At the core of the publication's identity program—developed for the Poetry Foundation and Magazine by Pentagram in 2018—was the invitation for a guest designer to interpret the letters P O E T R Y to create a unique cover for each issue.

Andrea Trabucco-Campos drew the latest typographic cover by sculpting bold letterforms from primitive shapes—circles, squares, triangles. The cover is inspired by poetry itself: poignant, reduced, yet complete with meaning and expression.
