Taking place for the first time at the Escola Artística e Profissional Árvore (Àrvore Artistic and Professional School), the new venue proved to be an excellent location for the course.

Five lovely editorial works were the final result of this year's edition. The twenty participants, working in editorial groups of four, decided on an overall set of parameters with regard to the texts that were given, and each member then elaborated their own response within the publication. Much of the first week was given to small exercises designed to facilitate an entry point to the main brief, supplemented by lectures from the course tutors. A book evening was also organised in which leading Porto designers were invited to talk about an editorial project of their choice. For this a big thanks to Ana Resende, João Castro (The Royal Studio), João Santos (Studio Bruto) and Miguel Almeida (Nonverbal Club)). Many thanks to two new tutors, Lizá Ramalho and André Cruz, and a special mention to assistant tutor Miguel Howard.
