Eye magazine is a British quarterly print magazine on graphic design and visual culture.
History
First published in London in 1990, Eye was founded by British writer and graphic designer Rick Poynor. Poynor edited the first twenty-four issues (1990–1997). Max Bruinsma was the second editor, editing issues 25–32 (1997–1999), before its current editor John L. Walters took over in 1999. Stephen Coates was art director for issues 1–26, Nick Bell was art director for issues 27–57, and Simon Esterson has been art director since issue 58.
The magazine design has become the subject of discussion in academic books.[1][2]
The magazine has had five publishers: Wordsearch, Emap, Quantum Publishing, Haymarket Brand Media and Eye Magazine Ltd, formed by John L. Walters, Simon Esterson and Hannah Tyson in April 2008, after a management buyout.[3]
