Magazine Analysis

All the font is in white. White is a pure and simple colour that works well with most backgrounds.

The background is all one image. No other images fill the page so it is simple and not overcrowded. This works well as it draws you attention directly to it.

An ordered list of featured articles follows a consistent style. The main article has the second biggest font after the title.

Small barcode in bottom right corner keeping out of the way of the important stuff.

Front Cover One

Front Cover Two A more cluttered front cover. Main

image at the top with smaller pictures at the bottom next to text.

Bigger barcode. Most of the text is in white. Some

of it is in blue which contrasts the white.

Other featured articles are on the front page in an ordered way.

This magazine looks more cluttered compared to “Discover Britain”

The photos on the rights of the page are nicely ordered and all fit together.

The numbers are large and clear enough to read what page has what on it.

The content is broken up with subheadings to make it easier to find what you are looking for.

Underneath each title is a brief description.

The colours and styles all work well. The description text could be darker against the background it is on.

Content Page One

Content Page Two This content page is in a more

causal style. It has only one image which

fills the whole page. The page numbers and titles

are really small compared to the image.

The page titles have quite a big description after them which allows lots of information and still isn't overcrowded.

The page also features a quote which helps to engage the readers into a particular article.

Double Page One This double page is

very simple. It consist of a picture on the left page and all the text on the right. This works very well as it is simple, understandable and incredibly easy to read.

The big L works but it shouldn't be in a red that dark as it is difficult to read on the black.

Double Page Two This double page is

more image based rather than text. The title is the biggest feature of the page and the one that your attention is immediately drawn to.

There is a lot less text compared to the first double page I looked at but this is also good as you don’t have to read as much meaning there is only relevant information.
