According to ContentSutra this is the new look of the
Hindustan Times done by
Mario Garcia. Very
Guardian-esque play of colours there (what next- a Communist Red web page?) - frankly whatever little we can figure out this looks pretty good, even though the business section stinks of
Mint - maybe that is because according to one story, Mint will be doing the business section for HT. Makes sense if you ask me. Anyway the question is not whether the redesign looks good, but whether they'll be able to stick to through thick and thin. The folks at Mint, and there are some very good people at the top there to make sure the design isn't broken, have ensured that. Will they be able to be so rigourous several floors below?
EDIT: According to a couple of senior folks down at HT, this is a
red herring. Well, that is a pity then, but according to
ContentSutra the sources are solid. Hmmm....
