Graphic Design Magazines are a key way for active graphic designers to further immerse themselves into the design community. They can inspire you, inform you and keep you up to date on the latest trends, hottest studios and new design talent.
They are often filled with great interviews, designer spotlights, graphic design news, current events, contests and everything else a graphic designer would want. The graphic design magazine list below contains a variety of top-notch publications I highly recommend having a look at.
Amazing Graphic Design Magazines
PRINT is an extremely popular bimonthly graphic design magazine about visual culture and design.
I.D Magazine is a leading critical magazine covering the art, business, and culture of design.
HOW magazine’s goal is to help designers run successful, creative, profitable studios and much more.
Communication Arts is an amazing art and design magazine that consists of eight issues and includes the Design, Advertising, Illustration, Photography and Interactive annuals.
Computer Arts is a kick-butt mag filled with tons of great advice for freelance designers of all levels and ages.

I would like to share one of my fav. magazines and the best thing about it is ” It’s Totally free ”
http://www.bakdergisi.com/
also before and after magazine is one of the best around
This is honestly a great post!
I have been looking for sometime to find a decent graphic design magazine. Computer Art is okay, but it certainly doesn’t wow me as much as it used to. I very much like the sound of ‘how design’ and I will certainly be checking them all out.
Great post!
I love Computer Arts, there’s nothing better than hearing it drop through my letter box!
I can’t say I’m familiar with ID Magazine, so I’ll have to check this one out!
Hello,
I really liked the post. One of my favorites is http://www.layersmagazine.com/ It appeals to the novice and expert graphic designer.
You’re not a designer/architect/artist unless you’ve read Metropolis :)

Nice list. Computer Arts is a great mag. I also like Beautiful/Decay magazine. Try checking that one out. No tutorials or stuff, just really rad art and interviews with amazing designers.
I prefer to get inspired by stuff that has nothing to do with the current trends in the industry.
Layers and How are my favorites, and have been a subscriber to those mags for a couple years now.
I must say, I wasn’t impressed with my 2 free issues of I.D.
Another good design publication is Before & After (www.bamagazine.com).
Wow, there are some I definitely want to read.
