Mario Hugo Gets WIRED

We at WIRED are debuting a new F.O.B. in the upcoming September issue and I'm just bursting with excitement about the new sections. Mario Hugo, who designed our very first "splash" page last February, has just completed a cadre of new page slugs--logos for the START, PLAY and brand-new TEST section--and boy are they gorgeous.
