The Sacramento Bee plans on revealing its revamped look in over a week. The redesign includes a more compact paper with new typefaces and a new nameplate, reported Sacbee.com.

Local investigative reporting, California events and health care will all get more emphasis in the new Bee.

Overall, the size of the story content will not change, aside from the obituary section that will be in larger type and shift to a six-column grid.

The makeover will also feature the addition of daily color comics, doubled stock listings and increased local coverage.

Top stories will be summarized on the front page, which will make the paper easier to navigate, Sacbee.com wrote.

"Our Region", a regional section with a business page (see image above), will be added, including both national and international coverage.

A lifestyle section featuring topics like Books & Media, Food & Wine and Style will be added as well.

The Sunday edition will have a new section on travel and arts, as well as remodeled opinion pages.
