The result of months of work from a team led by creative directors Alex Breuer and Chris Clarke with the input of senior designers and editors at the paper, the design overhaul will be rolled out across desktop, apps and mobile and a new tabloid print format.

The new font has been created in collaboration with design agency Commercial Type, who created the original ‘Guardian Egyptian’; and – The main text font remains the same — with marginal positive changes to size, line spacing and overall typesetting to improve readability.
