Canadian Metro launches ‘tune-up’ redesign
The free Canadian daily, Metro, redesigned this morning, going to what is basically a magazine-like front.
On the left is Friday’s front. On the right is today’s.

The press release says:
Metro has a fresh new look for readers on September 4th, when it launches a newly designed, brighter, more contemporary newspaper.
Metro’s facelift features a new, easier-to-read layout. The daily newspaper includes a more consistent colour coding of sections so that readers will have quick access to their favourite content.
The new Metro design also includes newly designed fonts, vibrant colours and more photos.
Metro’s English editions, Ottawa, Toronto, Edmonton, Calgary and
Vancouver, will all carry the new look starting Tuesday September 4th. Metro’s French edition in Montreal adapted the new look earlier this year. The changes to Metro are seen as less of a radical change, and more of a “tune-up” by Metro.

Metro is published in more than 100 cities, in 19 languages and in 21 countries worldwide.
