Sevnthsin jumped at the chance to work on Metro Magazine’s iPad app. We tried to find a balance between the magazine’s online presence and their beautifully designed, and wonderfully written print editions. What we built was a marriage of the two, a constantly updating dashboard featuring the best of web, and a rich experience featuring the best of print.
While most magazine applications at this point are static image or PDF viewers, Metro dared to convert each of their layouts into full standards-compliant web-views offering the benefits of real text, text selection, grabbable images, video content, etc. Anything the web can do, their magazine can do.
