Het Parool sounds gong as World’s Best Designed Newspaper

Newspaper Het Parool has recently been voted World’s Best Designed Newspaper. Ronald Ockhuysen, editor-in-chief of the newspaper, sounds the gong and opens trading at the Amsterdam exchange together with his colleagues.

The prize was awarded at the annual meeting of the Society for News Design, an international umbrella organization of designers and journalists. The jury praises Het Parool for ‘an enchanting design that makes news stories tempting to read’. The ‘clear signature’ and ‘striking mix of solid news and elegant white space’ was called ‘innovative’.

Het Parool also received two ‘awards of excellence’ for the PS section. These pages – the second half of the newspaper on working days– were called ‘hopeful’ for ‘a vital future of paper newspapers’ by the jury.
