Catalogue note

Polish bilingual design and lifestyle magazine FUTU, issue F3, dated 02-03/07 and themed SELF / PEOPLE / SURROUND. The minimalist white cover uses tactile blind embossing, including the FUTU title rendered in Braille, turning the physical surface into part of the editorial identity. The masthead states a print run of 3,000 copies and credits Michał Łojewski as design/art director and cover designer. The rear cover carries a restrained Nike Air Force 1 advertisement. Institutional research identifies FUTU as a major recent Polish graphic-design project and records F2/F3 as Golden Chimera 2007 cover winners.

Why this object matters

Łojewski’s tactile Braille/blind-embossed cover makes the physical surface central to the design, with documented issue-specific award context. Award Gold at 9.0 for the original design object; the stated print run remains a masthead claim.

Evidence limits: Complete under the standing TMR magazine rule; no missing pages, inserts, supplements or issued components have been reported.
