Retiro, created by Jean François Porchez in 2007–09, was specially designed to gives a unique voice of the Madriz magazine. Its a city magazine distributed in high class hotels, airports and others hip places in Madrid. Bilingual, Spanish–English, its main object is to offer to local and foreign readers ideas to go out, fashion, interior design and gossips. The layout take its roots from women magazines style with a touch of vernacular style. To achieve that, an hispanic Didot fill out perfectly its job by the association of the usual Vogue strength plus the south Spain cities ornaments and style. Many alternates and ligatures has been added to the family.
The family was beta for several years, until end of 2009, when we’ve rebuilt several concepts to perfectly match the magazine image and uses.
