2. Style sheet
For fonts, I chose ones that were visually appealing but would still fit into a
music magazine. The typeface in the middle would be fitting as a title or a
headline font, and the fonts on the left would be fitting for body text and
headers. The font on the left would be fitting for titles and headers.
