I created this origami cover design out of paper for the upcoming issue 1/12 of novum magazine, focusing on the fortune-bringing crane to wish all readers a good start into 2012 and A HAPPY BALANCE.

“If you were to sum up what Rupa is all about in one word, that word would be ‘balance’. A balance between the two fields of activity of classic graphic design and design for the new (and very new) media, a balance between commissioned work and their own developments, and not least a healthy work-life balance … Balance is clearly their secret to success, all of course under the watchful and beneficial eye of those fortune-bringing cranes”, writes Bettina Schulz from novum about Rupa Design .
