“Mark Neil is an exceptional talent. He changed the way I looked at magazine design and helped change the look, and fortunes, of The Big Issue. He understands the key dynamic between an editor and an art director and allows the editor to think they’ve had a good idea when it’s clear where the idea has started. He is one of the best magazine designers in Britain”
Paul McNamee
Editor, The Big Issue
