"MAS 007" is dedicated to the phenomenon of the "Die-In", motivated by the media event in Mazamet in 1973, when the entire population lay down at 2:30 and pretended to be dead. The magazine deals with the visual force of the body in numbers. This is also the base for the typeface: the letters consist of the arrangement of bodies, which are based on O. Neurath's "Isotype".
Editorial Design together with Johanna Schäfer
