The Times of London published today its first issue featuring a full-color, revamped design, Stephen Brook of the Guardian reports.

The new design will affect the Monday to Friday paper, not the Saturday edition, and will include color-coded sections, an expanded features section, and more two-page spreads. According to Brook, journalists at the Times have been told to focus on "longer pieces or short news items," and to avoid "mid-length stories."

The redesign is approximately a year and a half removed from the Times' most recent renovation, a switch in font, and almost four years from its switch from a broadsheet to a tabloid format.

The Rupert Murdoch-owned paper will continue redesigning until September.
