This magazine challenges conventions of typical media products in several ways. It uses a purple color considered feminine, youthful font suitable to both genders, and an underground setting connoting exclusivity. The layout includes two columns but adds obstructing boxes, challenging normal magazine layout conventions. Articles connote a hedonistic lifestyle challenging norms of what teenagers are typically thought to do.
