Poetry New Zealand Series

Poetry New Zealand is the country’s longest-running poetry magazine, showcasing new writing from Aotearoa and overseas.

It presents the work of talented newcomers and developing writers as well as that of established leaders in the field.

This issue is the first in a new direction for the publication. This issue forms a foundation for the system of naming and format, with the celebration of letterforms as the central parameter for cover design.

Designed for Massey University Press, Poetry 17 was designed with Thomas Le Bas and Fay McAlpine, and 18, 19 and 20 ongoing collaboration between Tom and I. 21 and 22 were solo projects (Thomas now being a busy design manager in Auckland/Canada!).

It pops! Everyone I’ve shown it to so far agrees that not only is it a beautiful piece of design, but that it draws the eye to an extraordinary degree …

Lovely feedback on Poetry 18 from Dr Jack Ross, Editor of Poetry NZ
