A new look in Lauderdale

The South Florida Sun-Sentinel launched a redesigned biz section Monday. From business design director Rebekah Monson:

"We're trying some new stuff throughout the paper: More color blocking for emphasis and separation. Pushing the use of a 10-column grid. Cleaner, more modern type.

The goal of the cover centerpiece is to have art and words be more integrated, and to be bigger and to be more eye-catching than on a regular news day. We're trying this for two reasons: Our readers are used to this section as a tab with a magazine cover and Your Business is full of consumer news, which the paper as a whole is pushing hard right now.

The Monday Morning section at the bottom will be more dynamic when we don't have to cram in the reader's note and as editors and writers adapt to the use of short-form here. We'll be pushing for quotes from the week, interesting numbers breakouts, briefs, and refer material there in coming weeks.

It's all evolving still, but this is how we launched."
