The information
The day the LHC was switched on, Publico made it its cover. This double spread infographic ran on pages 2-3, explaining what is the lHC, what is the goal, how does it try to do it, where is it, its structure...

The design
The introduction (upper left) explains why the LHC is built and what does it try to discover. At the left, the location and structure. The main piece shows the big ring and the different nucleus and the experiments they're performing with explanations of each one.
