Our new look

We've redesigned Restaurant Business magazine! Throughout are new graphic treatments that show our commitment to giving you captivating designs, all courtesy of our artistic brain trust: Jerimiah Brown, Abbey Lewis and Art Director Susan Froberg.

In all the discussions and debates surrounding this redesign, nothing was quite as divisive as the period you see at the end of our new logo. The camps broke down roughly into the “it’s distracting” group, and the “it’s bold, modern and definitive—a great reflection of the magazine” group. Which do you fall into?

Me, I’m lukewarm at best on it. My boss, Scott, is red hot over it. Let us know your feelings about this weighty issue. Go to the Restaurant Business Facebook page and cast a vote in The Great Period War of 2011. We’ll update you on the results.

While you’re on our Facebook page, let us know what you think of the rest of the redesign!
